I need to do the rotors on my 92' RR. What are the opinions on original LR, Proline ect.? Any other options?


Thanks, Tim

Tim,

I use DBAs which were purchased from EE. Great improvement over stock LR. However, I have oversize tires, the RR is packed to the brim on trips, and the roof rack is filled as well. So for me on mountain passes and off-road descents, the added performance is worth it. For just "normal" type driving with a mostly stock RR, it may not justify the added expense although its not too much additional over OEM.

I think it makes a difference which pads you use. The rotors are just not an issue that I am aware of. So you should probably go by price on this item.

There are specialty rotors as Jaime has mentioned. And there are always going to pluses and minuses with specialty items.

brembo rotors are great for keeping the stock set up..if you shop around you can get them for 28-34 dollars. I bought my last set from xks.com i think thats it they are a jaguar refurbishing place in san luis obispo.
