In the midst of replacing my half-shafts, I decieded to resurface my rotors. The guy at Ohio Automotive mic-ed em and told they were shot, so now I need to pick up some new rotors. My question is: Do I need to replace my pads too? They look like they still have plenty or meat left on them, as they were just replaced this past winter. Will my new rotors take on the same grooves that were on the last ones? Also, do i really need to use that pad coating that reduces squeels?

replace the pads with the new rotors, anti-squeel spray (grey stuff) the surface of the rotors, anti-squeel (red goop) the back of the shims. there are some used rotors and pads in the b/s forum (im selling some laugh.gif )
