    Hi all, My car has done 98000 Km and requires its first brake pad change. My service centre suggests changing both the rotors and pads. Is that the procedure or necessity? My pads only have 1 mm left in them and the rotors have a lot of life left apparently, but the service centre suggests...

    Rear Disc Brake Upgrade - 2013 Honda Civic LX

    Hi Webby, I am not trying to upgrade to Si. I am just thinking of replacing the rear drums with disc size of an EX-L and with something better than OEM/Stock. I do not have any used calipers etc. We are on total lockdown with everything closed and I might as well get the entire kit new. As for...
