You can't beat genuine for longevity, keep the wheels clean to stop dust accumulating and causing squealing.

Is everyone doing a rotor change with breaks or doing rotors every other brake job? HAs anyone had their rotors Cryo'd?

Hmmmm, I now remember hearing about the "cryo" stuff when I did mine. It would seem that is cryo crapola as I recall. I must have read everything I could. The consensus was no real discernible difference overall.
The rotors as I understand are softer and more sacrificial vs american which gives better stopping power. Mine were beyond the minimum wear level. No turning.
I got the whole kit from Europarts SD. Pads, rotors and sensors which I believe are the oem parts.
32k on the brakes since replacement. Starting to how a ridge on the edge of rotors. Pads look 75% plus life left.

I used parts from http://www.brakeperformance.com

You can see the stuff in this thread https://sprinter-source.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15964

I believe the guy from Brake Performance posted toward the end of the thread with a discount code

I can say that, with the parts I used, there was a huge difference in stopping ability, especially when heavily loaded compared to the stock rotors and pads. I have also installed their stuff on some of my other trucks and each has been a good improvement.
