Default Stock rotors

How long do these usually last? With spirited driving?

However, this 20th hit is to let you know that there are people out here who care. We may be as dumb as ****, because we don't have an answer, but we are reading ya.

Depends on how you drive. Mine were replaced at 36k miles with no problems. If you are a aggresive driver, track racer or constantly in stop&go traffic you may need to replace them sooner.

im at 20k and both pads and rotors look fine, although the origional tires are about shot (just put on my winters yesterday)

it all dpepends on your driving and braking habits. we put put around town mostly, so its lasting fairlywell

I ended up going through 3 sets of brakes in 12,000 miles. Reason? I had a warped wheel bearing that was making the vibration seem as though the brakes were bad even when they were brand new. So....I simply upgraded, replaced the bearing and went on my way.

It can't hurt to upgrade. I have the Mopar S1 kit from MoparSuperCenter.com, for the fronts and rears in black, cross drilled, with a cadium coating on them. They come with CF pads that eliminate all brake dust, and if you thought stock stopped well, you thought wrong. 50k on these brakes with 3/4 meat on the pads.

I am at 22 k right now and my car stops fine and all, no brake squeel or any kind of sound coming from my brakes, its just my brake pedal feels real wierd now, not as hard as it used to be. It just kinda sinks in a bit....

While I agree the mopar stg 1 kit looks pretty bad *** installed your spending more for show then anything really. I've personally witness stock rotors w/ hawk pads stop on the dime versus a mopar kit. But if you have the money and want a full kit the mopar is a nice touch.
