first check to see if you have solid or vented rotors, then head over to rockauto.com and order some. Aero is for vented and linear/arc are for solid. Just because you have an aero does not mean you have the aero(vented) rotors, so please check, so you don't end up like the guy a few threads above you. Vented rotors will have a gap between the front and back plates and solid is well solid...

I've had stock rotors/pad (semi metalic) and centric/akebono (ceramic) and I prefer stock by a long shot. Apart from the dust it has a better bite and stops quicker.

Fyi My arc has the 292mm vented rears. It's better to measure them before ordering...
