Default Best place for brakes

Next on my list of upgrades/fixes is a brake rotor/pad fix.. My brake pad light came on in my car and i've had very bad wobbles from my brakes when I use them around 60+MPH so I figure its about time for new pads/rotors. My question was what's the best website to deal with for '01 rotors/pads?

I JUST ordered a new front rotor/pad set from BlauParts.com. Much cheaper for OEM replacements ($170 before shipping). I don't have a bleeder, or a garage, and it's below zero here. . . so I'm having the install done for a couple hundred (or less), and I'll let you know how it goes. I sure hope new bearings will not be required. Plus, if this really is an "everything necessary" kit, that sure will make it easy! They have upgraded kits as well, but it's not in my budget right now, as the TBelt is due on the A6, plus it's ready for tires, and the suspension on the AR is giving me grief. Should be a nice several thousand $ winter.

Default Check out RM European

check out this website: http://www.rmeuropean.com/

I purchased front and rear rotors (zimmerman) and pads (mintex) for around $300 free shipping overnight. Had a shop put em on in just over an hour and I got new stops for $500 total.

Dealer wanted $1100 for crap parts.
