    Default Front rotors and pads

    Is it ok to do just my front rotors and pads and leave the rears for now or should i do all four? My fronts are warped and down to almost no pads and my backs are good. I'm only asking cause some wokshop manuals say to do all four at the same time but I'm a little light on cash...

    It would be ideal if you could do them all at once but if your fronts are that bad, it would be worse to leave them until you have the cash in which time you may need to brake suddenly, and the brakes won't be able to perform properly. Keep in mind that your fronts will wear a lot faster than your rears as they do the majority of the work. I'd say do fronts now and rears when you can.
