Recommended brakes/rotors
Anyone have any recommendations on rear brakes and rotors for my 05 RX-8 that aren't too costly?
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

RX8 and a Truk....
OEM - Factory rotors with Axis Ulltimate pads...if you don't mind cleaning break dust - they are hands down the best (in terms of stopping power) pads I've ever used.

+1000 on Racing Brake rotors.
I've had them on my car for some time and theyr'e awesome. Send a PM to Rishi at Auto RnD, he's a forum vendor and is who I got my brake hardware from. https://www.rx8club.com/auto-rnd-91/

Another option is Centric rotors from the parent company of StopTech:

The Centric rotors are great. They have an electo-super-duper coating on the centers so they don't rust and the overall quality and cut pattern is of higher quality than almost anything I have ever seen for $65 each rotor. Pair the with some Axxis Ultimates and some good brake fluid and you're good to go.
The Racing Brake kit and products are also awesome but I think they are a bit more expensive. Rishie is the man for those.

I like the ones AMG RX7 pointed out. They seem to be very good for not a lotta cash. I personally would save my pennies for a set of 2 piece RB w/ the vented slot option.
