I live in an area that sees severe winters and lots of salt use. My Toyota Tundra while it sees regular use, also can sit for half a week without use which causes the brakes to rust frequently. At best I am getting about 4 years out of a brake rotor before it becomes so severely rusted that it needs to be replaced. At this point my brake pads are not worn yet, but I replace them with the new rotors. I typically buy coated rotors, but the coating doesn't last long in this environment.
Does anyone have a recommendation on what brake rotors seem to be the most rust resistant? I'd like to be have my rotors last at least until the pads are worn out. I was thinking of trying Raybestos Specialty - Truck Rotors as they have a max of .002" runout and are painted. However for that price I can get OEM Toyota too, which I have used in the past, but also rust pretty badly after about 4 years.
