Default Napa brake question

Brake question.. I have brembo rotors that we're supposed tobarrive today but they did not at autozone.. the center part the brake pad that doesn't touch did not rust in 3 years on my current brembo rotors. Napa has their house brand $42 each in stock. Anyone use these and if so did the center part of the rotor rust at all? Or should I wait till tomorrow and just throw the brembo I ordered on.. or reuse these brembos they are not warped.. I looked on other posts and people use the Napa ones for track use but nobody has commented on them for long term. Will be pairing these with OEM honda pads. BTW I live in WA so I'm in the rain all the time. thanks

Most seem to be happy with cheapest rotors out there. As you live in a rainy territory I'd get put whatever rotors have a protective paint coating for the center part of the rotors. I personally wouldn't consider the brand name in your decision.

Any coated rotor will be fine. Some are zinc plated (sliver/goldish). Some are black E-coated.

The E coated versions stand up to moisture/salt/corrosives MUCH better.
But the zinc plated versions stand up to sunlight MUCH better.

You probably want black E coated rotors. Napa is fine. Centric is fine. Any brand you pick is likely fine.
