Wagner and OEM.

Also there is a lot of of cheaper rotors that most of time work OK.

To get a good rotor replacement and long lasting rotor you have to replace and have other good brake parts and proper installation.
Good driving habbits.
Good pads and rear brakes working good and calipers and brake mounting parts and torquing wheels and no jackrabbit cowboy driving and tail gating.

Many things besides poor quality cause rotors to warp and break and fail.

I agree with MT, Wagner and O.E for sure. I don't know if they are carried south of the border, but GM up here carries their AC Delco brand, their second line to the GM factory O.E. brand. I have had good luck with them and are very competitively priced.

Re: Brake disc rotor brand

My last set of rotors were ATE. Perhaps not the longest lasting, but I liked the built-in wear indicator...
