Anybody have a good source for brake discs?

Took a look at my brakes tonight to find out why the car is so reluctant to stop. I found the pads rusted solidly to the springs. It took a lump hammer and a masonry chisel to move them . But aside from needing new pads and springs, I found that one of my discs has a crack right through it. So I guess I need a new pair of discs too.

It's not all bad. The caliper and the pots slide quite easily with a gentle turn of the G clamp.

So, anybody got a source for front brake discs? I remember a while ago that somebody ordered some and there was some uncertainty about if/when they would ever be delivered.

I think I'll give the EBC pads a try this time, they work well on my Legacy. Or will I get the springs and shims included if I buy pads from Subaru?

Phil.
