Are these rotor/pad replacements for a tc or xb?

Just had to repoint the question and correct the links for the xB.

xB Front: http://www.erzperformance.com/produc...02%20-3211.htm

xB Pads: http://www.erzperformance.com/produc...59%20-2720.htm

This is something I've been looking into as well but haven't done the brakes on my b just yet. So I'm going to follow this thread and see what everyone else is recommending.

I have the exact same thing as below. A little less money spent but good quality.

Don't bother with drilled rotors. Only get slotted.

Are the slotted rotors on Ebay any good though?

I like the price and the red or black option.

If not, then I'm getting the Stoptech slotted rotors with Axxis Ultimate pads in the near future.

Go with the stoptech slotted rotors for sure. Not sure I would really trust the stuff you find on ebay. Rotors and pads are on my todo list as well.

A guy linked me to this site. All about brakes. These look pretty good too.

Are Hawk pads much better than Axxis? They differ price wise.

I purchase same StopTech Rotors & break pads. I cannot get the old rusty rotors off... I tried with a hammer and they won't move.
Anybody had this problem? I appreciate any help or advice, thanks.

look at your rotor , you should see 2 threaded holes , spray it with a penatrating oil and screw in the right size bolts ( 10mm metric thread) it will get it off.

frogbox... I tried that this weekend, and it does not work. The holes do not go all the way to the other side.
