Have 5th gen with EBC rotors and pads. Have used them for 5 years with lots of towing through the mountains. Definitely worth it.
I've had EBC slotted rotors on my Crosstrek for almost 100,000 miles now, and they may have been cheaper than OEM rotors.
I've also ordered a full set of the EBC USR rotors and will install them myself, same with the splash shield and door seals.
The ebc slotted are great, I am using them on my gti and Xterra.
I use ebc slotted rotors with red stuff pads for my dailies
May have been overkill but it worked a charm. (ebc yellow stuff, dot5.1, high carbon rotors)
Just pads and rotors is fine. Probably cheap rotors causing the issue. Go OEM Toyota. Almost positive Akebono pads are oem, as well as Advics rotors. Either way these will not warp.
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?
i run ebc front rotors, dba rear rotors and powerstop pads brakes good but my fronts squeal when cold (my car has brembo calipers)
Tried aftermarket rotors on my Toyota corolla. Warped them twice within 6 months. Used cheapies from orielly's. Put Toyota rotors on, been fine ever since.
