Brake discs POWER STOP or OEM Toyota

POWER STOP Brake discs

I used powerstop rotors and pads and I used TRQ calipers. Powerstop calipers were backordered at the time. They're all just refurbished calipers that are powder coated so I don't think brand is that important for the calipers anyway.

Pros: easy installation
Vehicle: Toyota Highlander

I literally put these on my 2018 last Sunday and they feel great so far. Broke them in as instructed and they have been smooth riding. Took me about 2 hours taking my time and bleeding the brakes

Pros: feel great, smooth riding

I’ve been running Powerstops front & rear on our Touring since 2021 and they are still braking solid without any issues. I think proper break in procedure is important and this is just a daily. No track or auto crossing. But they panic stop wonderfully and predictably with zero chatter or pull.

Pros: solid braking, predictable

I've had them in my truck for 2-3 years. Through many miles and tons of off-road time (and some very harsh wheeling) on desert and alpine trips, they've held up just fine. The only time I had an issue was when coming down a very long, steep grade (Sonora Pass in the California Sierra Nevada) with about 1,200 lb of cargo in the truck. I started getting some pretty nasty fade and had to pull over for about 20 mins to wait for everything to cool down. That being said, the same exact thing would have happened with any near-stock-size pad+rotor setup, so it's not a fault of the product itself.

Pros: held up well, good for off-road
Cons: fade on steep grades

A few thousand miles later and I started to noticed a some shaking in the steering wheel when braking in the higher speeds (60-80mph). I called a few shops in my area that were highly recommend on both here Reddit, yelp, and the forums. Most pointed to warped rotors. One shop says to have the rotors machined and another says to have the completely replaced. What are your guy’s thoughts on having them machined?

Pros: smooth braking at lower speeds
Cons: shaking steering wheel when braking at high speeds

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.

Pros: consistently decent, no trouble
Cons: fails in weeks, poor quality
