Default Best place to get new brakes for a scrambler

After readjusting my rear brake so it began to work again I came to find out that I need new pads a disc for the rear. I figured since I am doing that I might as well get new front discs and pads as well.

I went to the local polaris dealer and they want $35 bucks a piece or so for each part ( rear pads 35, rear disc 35, Left front pads 35, LF Disc 35, Right front pads 35, RF Disc 35. I find these prices to be high for the pads and I am uncertain about what a good price is for discs all around on a 1999 Scrambler 400 4x4.

If anyone has had good experiences with some other places to get new brake parts and accessories please let me know so I can get some quality parts at decent prices.

Thanks for the responses everyone. Now I have wide variety of choices to choose from. I have been looking at the EPI discs and the pads as well as some EBC and Titax rotors and EBC and Tusk pads from Rocky Mountain.

Anyone have any opinions on the rockymountain stuff or should I just go with EPI?

Well it looks like it will just get some replacement discs from Rocky's that are supposedly better then stock for about 12 bucks cheaper and get some EPI pads and call it quits.

Thanks for the help everyone.

I have the EBS pads from Rocky MT. They work good. Dont know how good compared to the EPI's though. MY rears wont work at all now (I dont think it is the pads though)
