I only get about a year and a half from rotors from advance then they warp and I get front end wobble when applying brakes. Any advice on a better brand rotor

R1 is the best I've used, I've read they're the same as Centrix, but can't say... But the R1's on sale is a Rotor tough to beat. Pads to match driving, a Power Stop Ceramic's work great!
 
I will also recommend r1 concepts to anyone I talk to. They've been awesome so far (2 years) with advance cq platinum pads.

No rust, no vibration, barely worn
 
Either you are buying cheap rotors or you are doing something wrong. Make sure you are properly braking them in also.

A year and a half? I'd be so happy with that. I have two sets of rotors (OE and Aimco) that I swap out when I re/re the snow tires. The longest they've not wobbled for is 3 months. Wimpy breaks on a heavy car.
 
i ended up hammering them much harder then ever before last night, was trying to get to 3 rd gear wot and ran up on traffic, the whoosh sounds where so damn loud and they were just grabbing like crazy. and my abs dont work, if i hit them to hard they will lock up.
