Ive seen people go the full spectrum of pads, from cheapos to expensive. I’d go oem at a minimum, remember these are big heavy trucks that need a lot of stopping power. I’ve had a lot of luck with powerstop so far.
I use Powerstop Drilled and slotted. Been the best for not developing a squeak and glaze.
I recently-ish replaced my pads and rotors with the Powerstop Z26 stuff. Works fine, and makes a lot less dust. Can't say I've noticed a huge difference in braking force.
Ran this set for the last 3 years, about 20,000 miles. They look and work great with factory calipers (I painted mine while I was installing).
I’ve been really liking my powerstops. $375 for rotors and carbon fiber ceramic pads. Easy install and they’re super quiet. Have yet to really drive them hard but for daily/spirited driving I’m super happy with them.
If got the brembo pads and discs on for about 2 months now. They are good enough for the daily driving. Brake dust still a bitch
PowerStop Z23 pads are excellent with little to no dust and great bite.
I just snagged some brembo pads rotors from fcp and saved myself almost 50% compared to dealer pricing AT MY COST, and the brembos are also an upgrade. Oh did I mention they have lifetime warranty?
I currently have OEM rotors and Brembo pads on the car. This bitch stops, but they’re the dustiest brakes i’ve ever had, and I only get about 7 months out of a front and rear set.
switching to a new set of stockers showed me exactly how different the dimensions are. they look the same, but the fit is no where near the correct size for these carriers. the brembo pads bounced around like crazy. its alright i was able to return them but i was hoping to get rid of dust. maybe ill try to get a replacement set and see if they fit any better
