Default Rear brake rotor information needed

Gentlemen - I've deceided it's time to replace my REAR brake rotors and would like all opinions that are available on the forum.

My car is a 2005 Limited Coupe, N/A. It is hardly ever driven in the winter months and driven very little in the summer months. In the last year I've only put on about 1000 miles.

Now for the rotors. I was looking on "Rock Auto" site and saw a number of different rotors. Of interest was the Centric High Carbon Alloy disc, part number 12535012 and the Bosch Quiet Cast rotor, part number 16010203. I have Centric ceramic pads on the front and the rear now. Has anyone used either of these rotors on their car and what did you think of them? If other rotors are recommended by anyone, I would like to hear about them as well. I don't want to put an overkill rotor on the rear, like the high priced racing rotors, or anything of that equivalent. Just some good, regular driving rotor's.

Again, the car is not driven a lot but I do not want to put something bad on it. I want firm, positive, quiet, no vibration braking. Would welcome anyone's input.

Jim

Centric is a pretty good brand. I've used their rotors before. it's got middle-of-the-road pricing which is usually what I look for. I'm sure it will meet your expectations for a rear rotor!
