rotors for '98 Accord Coupe

Hi


My rotors warped, so no more cheap rotors. Does anyone know if the (I hate to say it ) Canadian Tire premium rotors are worth a darn for this vehicle?

Otherwise it's Hoda's rotors, right? Do Honda rotors warp? This has been a problem on my last three Accords.

Can't go wrong with OEM.

If you keep warping rotors you've got a problem with drag causing heat build up, most likely. Push the pistons back with the calipers still mounted up, if you can't slide the caliper back and forth on it's slides easily with two fingers, you're dragging....
