Duralast rotors

Has anyone used the Duralast rotors?? I'm replacing my front and rear rotors on my 2001 Camaro SS. I was able to find and purchase the Brembo blanks for my front but the rears or back ordered until the end of August. I was going to use the Duralast for the rears and just wondering if they are any good? I'm also replacing pads with the Hawk HPS. Thanks!

did you check rotorsonline for the rears. They usually stay stocked. I don't know anything about the duralast either.

i have found with break pads and rotors it's all in how you break on how they will last. i buy the cheapest autozone brand pads and never had any problems and they last longer. as for the rotors i would say it would work the same way but i don't really know since i just replaced my rotors for cheap d&s rotors from ebay. again cheap and works perfect!

I had them for a bit and wasnt so much a fan, I have Baer Eradispeed's now. I dont think they are in the same rotor class though. SSBC has a rotor/pads package front and rear for $340, my buddy has been running them and likes them alot.

I've got a new set on front, along with their remanufactured calipers, and their most expensive ceramic pads. So far, so good.
