What brakes do you like

[thatgreentruck]

I have a warped set of rotors and my pads probably have only 40% remaining so i'm going to put a set of pads and rotors on.
I'll use Brembo blanks as i've had good luck with them in the past.
However i'm looking for recommendations on pads.
The car is driven by my wife except for the 5 times a year when i'll tow my track car which on the trailer is 4500lb.
I was thinking about Hawk LTS or EBC Yellows.
Any thoughts

Do the Tundra brake upgrade. There is alot of threads here about it. I just did mine with the 231 mm calipers, rotors and ceramic pads for a 2001 Tundra and I LOVE it. Braking is SO much better.

I agree with Gonzo.

I LOVE the Brembo blank rotors, too. They're fantastic. With the extra size and width, they rarely warp.

Google the 231mm Tundra brake mod

I haven't seen too much of a price difference when it comes to rotors, shipping will kill you in cost.
Try Summit for Brembo blanks - good selection and shipping is free sometimes when you buy over $100 in goods....

try brakewarehouse.com or USautoparts

try just google "best price brembo rotors"

also whichever one you pick then google their name and "discount coupons" and save another few bucks.

Good choice on the Brembos. Toyota pads work great for me, and of course can also be found at a discount at Toyota Parts Zone or other dealers.

I bought my Brembo Blanks from Buybrakes.com.

I originally ordered the slotted ones, but they were on national backorder for 60 days, so they gave me the blanks for the price of the slotted.

I suggest the EBC Greenstuff 6000 Series pads. I run them and they're great, just a bit dusty at first.

The only thing other than the swap that I suggest is a good set of stainless steel braided brake lines. My pedal is mushy as hell and I can't wait for new lines. The full set costs ~100 at Wheelersoffroad.com

I have some new Autozones that you can have for cheap. But I recommend going to Tundra brakes. Noticeable difference.
