Anyone know where a good place to buy brake drums for a 96 Civic LX would be? I don't want to spend $50 a piece on them. Does the quality really matter as these don't do much of the braking for the car?

No I don't want to do a rear disk swap...

 

kragen? autozone? pepboys?

 

Yeah, I thought of them, but they are all over $50. I'm looking for an online place or a GBC type place to get them for like $20. I'm cheap...

 

Raybestos part #109311 at Kragen is only $24

 

i am pretty sure Nopi sells brembo drums for like 38 bucks a piece.

Are you talking about the shoes? If so, there have got to be lots for under $50.

I don't know what part Cashis EG8 is talking about but it sounds like a good price.

If you're talking about the brake drums, have you checked your local junkyards?

 

I'm refering to the brake drum.

One ore thing Hondaman, I wouldn't skimp too much on your brakes - I mean they're the only thing keeping you from flying into whatever is in front of you when you drive.

 

I found some brake drums on Nopi, thanks for the idea Ronin.

No, I'm not trying to scrimp on the brakes. I just didn't want to pay over $50 per drum when I only paid $29 for the front rotors and they were Brembo. I knew there were some cheaper name brand drums out there, I just didn't know where to look.

Thanks to everyone for their input!!

 

Where did you get Brembo front rotors for $29?

 

Group buy center, they had the Brembo blanks for $29 a piece plus shipping.
