I changed my break pads themselves since the rotors can last a good while, PowerStop Z26. HIGHLY recommend. Great breaking and no break dust/squeal like the Brembos. I kept the Brembos for track days but for some spirited driving and daily, PoweersStops.

Pros: Great breaking, no dust/squeal

I’ve run ebc red stuffs on autocross and spirited mountain cruises. They held up great, never over heated, and kept less dust. Key being LESS, not none. However, this was on a 200hp mini so I can’t speak to how they’ll hold up on higher power applications. Bedding them in properly goes a long way towards long life. I put about 6 autox, 15k mi, and 2 track days on a set and they were about 40% left.

Pros: held up great, less dust
Mileage: 15000 km

I'd do a stock replacement rotor (Zimm) and a pad with a bit more heat tolerance (not a track pad by any means) to deal with the trailer. Reds are fine street pads but will cave to heat somewhat easily.

Pros: good cold bite
Cons: cave to heat easily

I put a set of power stops on the wife’s SUV the weekend before we got married. They lasted maybe 12,000 miles? Maybe less? They warped and started chattering something awful. Wound up doing rotors, pads and calipers on all four wheels: Raybestos coated rotors and heavy duty pads, haven’t had a problem since.

Cons: warped, chattering
Mileage: 12000 km
