Brakes and Rotors

How many miles did you change your stock brakes? and if you did so, was it with the rotors?

I am nearing 75k and need to change out my stock breakpads - heard it was pretty good for stock useage

Also any recommendations? I seen STILLEN rotors and brakes are they any good?

Thanks Guys

40k replaced front rotors and pads and rear pads only. They were just about gone in the front.

Wow...75k on stock brakes and you want to try something else, why? Didn't you like the oem stuff?

I changed my rears a few months ago and was probably around 75-80k. I'm not at 83xxx and changing out my front rotors/pads next week and I know there is nothing left.

Recently changed mine at 50k, went with new OEM pads all around and machined the rotors which still had plenty of life left. Had this done at the dealer as I was in for a new power steering hose anyways and I think it was about $150 for the brake job.
