Whats the difference between brake rotors, pads and caliper?
Also, can brake rotors and brake pads be two different brands? And how do I know which is a good price and which is too high or too low? Autozone has some that are $54, $35, and even $21 or $19, does cheap mean worse in brakes?
I am planning
There are many different manufacturers of brake pads, rotors and calipers, as well as hardware kits, wheel cylinders and shoes, just to name a few.
You'd be hard pressed to find any installer that doesn't use a combination of parts. Sometimes
