How are those rotors holding up? On previous cars I typically have purchase name brand rotors. However, knowing I was selling my last car, I put on no name rotors that, while they worked fine, were covered in rust within 2 months. Functionally, they were fine. But cosmeticLly, they looked horrible. I am not saying the rotors in the above post are bad. Just keep in mind that you generally get what you pay for. Many name brand rotors will be or offer the option of plating to keep the rust off non-friction surfaces.

I don't know if the rust would be a concern as my factory rotors have rust on lot of places.
Here are few sources for cheap OEM parts.

Front wear sensors $35 each ($80)
Front pads $145 for the set ($200)
Autozone sells Duralast rotors for $99 a piece and they give two year warranty.

Rust shouldn't be a structural concern, it is more a cosmetic issue than anything else. That said, I have had success with Zimmerman and brembo branded rotors that have been zinc plated. I have also had success with stoptech rotors, but those were part of a big brake upgrade with calipers. There are also plenty of other brands out there, but those are the ones I have used.
