[Shotimes] 96 SHO Brakes

>From my experience on the SHO, semi-metallic pads seem to cause rotors to
warp or at feel a pulsating effect.  Carbon metallic pads appear to be
more forgiving to rotors.

When I asked the AZ parts guy about different rotor brands they carried,
the ones that cost 2X the cheapo ones had more meat on them from what I
was told.

That being said, and based on what others have said here, if the rotors
you have aren't in too bad shape it is worth the effort to turn them and
reuse them.
