kool,Pepboys has EBC and Hawk but i have a question,how bad is it if I change my own pads but i dont get my rotors resurfaced?
cause pepboys charges a shitload for that crap
the pads are only $60,maybe I should change the pads AND rotors by my self?

technically you should change both. if you havent scorched the rotors by going too long without changing the pads, then you should be fine. also if there is a lip around the outer edge on the surface of the rotor, then you should just get new rotors. i went with autozone cheapys about a year ago, cuz i needed rotors but wasnt ready to upgrade to the larger rotors like i am about to. if your runnin your brakes hard, i would go with aftermarket, but if your tryin to cut corners with the limited lifetime autozone speacial, just go get some $15 pads and call it a day.
