    Brakes and Rotors for 99 Max

    I need to replace the front brake pads and rotors on my 99 MAX SE(53k
    miles). Apparently the rotors have "hot spots" in them and can't be turned.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on what will be the best brake-rotor
    combination?

    Gee my (independent Nissan trained tech) says that I'm close to a front brake
    job on my '99 Maxima GLE with just about 60K on it. He says listen for the
    squeal soon. I sure hope my rotors can be turned.

    Did you ride the brakes or do a lot of city driving? I did plenty of
    parking lot and high speed autocross, so I usually have to replace front
    pads on my 95 about every 30K miles. But the rotors lasted 90K miles
    (without ever being turned) before I replaced them to be on the safe side
    when they started to develop tiny surface cracks. I always use Nissan
    pads and rotors.

    On the other hand, I had to turn the rotors anually on a T-bird I had
    before that, because they would warp at sustained speeds (apparently pads
    would skip on the rotors making them uneven).
