That being said I have a couple questions:
What rotor size? When you check places like summit they differentiate between 11.xx and 12.xx inches
Ceramic or semi metallic or?
Anybody know of a front and rear package that doesn't have flashy drilled rotors? I hear they warp faster.

I have had decent luck with the smaller tundra brake upgraded caliper. As its not a large as he longer one. Seems to fit under all my 16 inch aluminum rims. I believe mine are the 13WE calipers ( the Smallest of the TBU Calipers).. As I was just trying to get rid of my rotor warp with the wider rotors this stop it for me. Plus the brake pads are physically the same size as the stock calipers.
I do have one 3rd gen with the 15 inch calipers and wheel cylinders. As well as the rims. That I will most likely swap to the 16 inch wheel cylinders and 13WE calipers.
I run raybestos rotors with element 3 pads. I see lots of folks like to run power stop components. I don't have any experience with them. Its just seems to be a goto for a pile of people.
