Which set of front rotors should I go with here?

So I was able to budget out my money from this paycheck and im just going to go ahead and buy a new pair of rotors and brake pads. Decided to go with raybestos since that seemed to be the most recommended brand across different sites I asked for advice. My only problem now is, between these 2 pairs. Im a bit confused why the one that has the painted hat and edges is cheaper (by ~$10). Why would the nicer pair be cheaper? Or am I missing something here? Anyways just thought I’d double check before placing my order.

also i read on the mega thread that forum users get a discount on Rockauto. Is there a special code for that or do I just put “tundras.com” in the “how did you hear about us” section?

Put the number code that @shifty` linked in the how did you hear about us box then click anywhere outside the box and it should accept it.

 

I still think this configuration is better and or definitely cheaper


It says 04 Tundra that was just to verify it would be 13WL parts.

 

I’ll be able to tell if my calipers are sticking when I use my compression tool right? Because they will be frozen and won’t move… also, is there a break in period for using these ceramic brakes on our trucks?

Last but not least, can anyone break down how to readjust the rear brakes for my truck, I looked at the mega thread, but it seems intimidating, and leaves me a bit confused, I need things explained to me like im a 5 year old when it comes to car repairs. Im not sure if they even need to be adjusted, but the fact my front rotors are warped after 2 years has me wondering if the rears are doing their job. ( I put the car in reverse and slammed on the parking brake a few times but that didn’t seem to have any effect on anything, and on a side note, as I slammed on the parking brake it wouldn’t bring the truck to a complete stop either, i figure maybe my parking brake isn’t engaging as it should, but thats a different problem for a different day)

 

The most obvious was to see if caliper pistons are sticking is pad wear. I’ve noticed these pads tend to wear a little unevenly, but if a pad look like a doorstop, or one side is twice as thick as the other, it’s a problem (really dirty pad pins can cause this too)

Even if sticking, the pistons will go back into their bores with a tool; they just don’t retract well when brake pressure is released.
