2006 EX 4 Dr 4 CLY - Brake Pad and Rotor Recommendations
I have a 2006 4 dr EX 4 cylinder Accord. I need to replace my rear brake pads and my front rotors and pads.
I have seen that some people recommend AutoZone's CMAX ceramics for the rear pads. Any thoughts?
Any recommendations on the front rotors and pads?
Thanks,

More important than rotors are pads. I've used AAP rotors for many years now and haven't had any warping issues. The key thing is properly torquing the lug nuts afterwards and not ramming them in with an impact gun like most shops do. I've used Akebono, AAP Platinum and Wagner ThermoQuiets with good results. I've been running AAP Plats for 15K miles now and they're still quiet with no brake dust. Best part is they can be gotten for cheap with coupon codes.

I have had good luck with the Centric E-coated premium rotors that can be had at Tire Rack. The e-coating prevents the edges and the center hat from getting corroded. they are super smooth, and have a perfect surface with little signs of wear after 35,000 miles. However after 2 1/2-3 years now I can see some surface rust inside the vanes.
