Brake pads Raybestos or DBA

The best overall for my use are Raybestos “Truck and Medium Duty”.

DBA pads and slotted rotors From knsbrakes.com. Came in at $1,080 delivered last year. Completely eliminated the shudder with the stock brake pads and the slotted rotors look awesome.

DBA Sport. Heaps less dust than oem.

I always buy from Rockauto, but check if the part is on Amazon for comparable price for the free shipping. With brake parts especially I highly recommend buying the best you can afford. Cheap pads and rotors will be noisier and more likely to warp and give vibration when braking. The cheapest pads are also usually bonded meaning the friction material is only glued onto the backing plate, and I’ve seen them separate, especially a risk if you drive where rust is an issue. Also cheap pads don’t always include abutment clips and good shims.

I just changed my rear pads and rotors. Bought raybestos from rockauto. $80 shipped.

I’m at 155,000km and I’m about to replace my OEM rotors and pads this month with DBA slotted rotors + DBA XP/SP brake pads. I do 75% highway driving and I never have to brake hard.

Like the previous comment said, akebono is their oem supplier, imo I like raybestos the best because they’re super cheap on rock auto and they produce a lot less dust if you go with ceramic pads instead of metallic

I have Raybestos Element 3 pads on 2 of our 3 cars and brake dust is next to nothing.

I just put on Raybestos R-line pads and rotors on a 2010 Town and Country. Those vans are notorious squealers. The trick is to use the spray version of disc brake quiet.

Just replaced rear brakes on my ‘15 rogue with Raybestos E3 pads. I really had to force the pad into the new hardware clips. I did a quick google search and his seems to be an issue with E3 brake hardware. The original brake pads were also really tough to remove before I put the new ones in.
