3.0RB Rotors and Pads

Hi,

Just had my car serviced and he said the brakes will probably need changing next service.

Are standard RDA or DBA rotors any better than the ones Subaru will supply?
How much do the stock rotors and pads cost through Subaru?

If it would be a bit cheaper to buy RDA or DBA myself and supply them i will.
I don't need an upgrade - the stock brakes work perfectly well for me.

Thanks.

Pistons on the H6 are great!

Contact Michael from Garage88 for quotes and stay away from subaru's over priced stock pads/rotors

If you were happy with the stock brakes, get some RDA rotors and Bendix GCT pads.

Cheap option and equivalent to the stock setup.

Thanks people!

I used Bendix pads on my SS as i found they didn't put out much brake dust, so i will stick with them for the Liberty.

Anyone know how much Subaru would charge for rotors and pads for front and/or back?

My 2.0R was close to the $600 mark (fronts only). This was 3 year ago though.
