Don't confuse OE with OEM. OE is original equipment, period. OEM means that it is made by a manufacturer who produces the original part. It does not mean the part is the same as OE. OE is not OEM and not all OEM is created equal. All of these products vary as far as quality and exact design are concerned.

One big factor with regard to rotors is the vent design. Look at the quality put into these Centric rotors. I doubt, the same can be said for your rotors from Autozone.
