Depending on the build quality of the TLX rotors compared to the shitty OEM rotors on the Accord, anybody think they should fit considering it's practically the same vehicle? Trying to look for specs online but nothing is showing up yet since they just came out.

If anything I'll just buy Centric rotors to replace the OEM rotors on my 2013 Accord Sport (Damn thing judders)

TLX

5 x 114.3

front = 12.6" ventilated
rear = 12.2" solid


Accord

5 x 114.3

front = 11.1" ventilated (LX) / 11.5" ventilated (Sport, EX, EX-L, EX-L V6, Touring)
rear = 11.1" solid
 
Interesting that the 9G has smaller rotors than the 8G in the front.

I doubt you'll be able to fit Acura rotors to the Accord. They probably put a different hub so you won't be able to bolt the caliper bracket up.

Of course they would do that considering the TLX is just a glorified Accord.

Thanks for the specs!

Before I purchase these Centric rotors, what's your guys thoughts on these http://store.zeckhausen.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=76_172_1460_5750_5752_5753

From the sounds of things (reviews), the big rotors do little to quell brake fade.

I have used the Centric rotors on lots of cars that have bad brake shake issues. The Centrics never did it once installed. Our Pacifica would go thru parts store rotors every 6-months. The centrics went 2.5 years and outlasted a set of semi-metallic pads.

The only suggesion I have is dont pay $75+ on that website when Rock Auto has them for $47 each for the same part number. I get all my parts from Rock Auto, great to do business with.

Thanks! I've been trying to shop around but nobody seems to cary the front rotors.
I know. That is why was surprised to see that RA had them listed after I saw your PN listed. They must have been released in the past few months.

One nice plus on the Centric premium rotors is black epoxy painted rotors hats and vains and they balance the rotors at the factory. I love em!

Love RockAuto. If any of you aren't on their mailing list, check out the 5% off coupon codes posted in The Pit. Anyone can use them any number of times until they expire. 5% isn't a huge number, but their prices are already awesome, so it's like icing on the cake.
