Nothing is overkill on these trucks brake wise. I have powerstop rotors and brembo pads. Has saved my bacon once when traffic stopped instantly on the highway.
I personally use power stop drilled and slotted.
Parts quality has gone straight to hell since the start of the pandemic. Especially brake rotors. I'm tired of looking like a jackass to customers when stuff from trusted brands fails in a couple weeks. The only consistently decent rotors I'm finding are, of all the places, freaking Power Stop coated rotors from Rock Auto. I Never have trouble with those.
I went with normal "street" powerstop rotors on the front and I think matching ceramic pads. No issues at all brakes as it should.
I replaced mine with Power Stop rotors and pads at about 60k and noticed zero difference in braking after. They also only lasted 20k miles before the rotors started to warp. Just put OEMs back on. Absolutely not worth it.
My '15 has 88k mi, and I think I'm on my third set of rotors. Since the car is out of warranty now, I got a set of slotted rotors and matching pads from AutoZone or PepBoys for $350. They don't squeak when wet, and don't accumulate the rust or dirt the factory rotors did. My braking is greatly increased too.
I've had these on my current, and last taxima and they've been great.
Have outlasted all replacements I've used. Pads seem to last longer too

I use powerstop z23 rotor/pad combo. Look great, stops hard with no warping, no dust, rotor hubs coated for no rust and no sound. Been using for years on my previous and newer WRX.
