Brake Pad and Rotor
Is it bad to get a DURALAST brake pad from autozone and then get brembo sports drill rotor online? I mean how does this combo work? i don't know how good or bad duralast is...
I could get another brand of pad online too but have to wait for another week...I'm getting new rims this week so I want to have everything done by this week

I have never heard of Duralast. Check what compound they are made out of and then match the rotors. If they are carbon based then you should be fine. If metallic/ceramic or whatever with carbon then things could get too hot and crack your rotors.

I've never had problems with heat/cracking with my Brembos and the Axxis ceramic ULTs setup. But Duralast is like the "Equate" brand for Wal-mart; it's the store generic. I have had no issues with my Duralast battery for my other vehicle. Just order a good complement for those Brembos...like Axxis, EBC, Porter..., etc.
