I use Powerstop rotors with akebono pads and works better than OEM in my opinion. I don't like Powerstop pads because they have a break in procedure whereas akebono does not.
I put them on my truck first for better braking while towing and was so impressed with them that I put a set on my wife's rx350 as well just because they feel so much better than stock, IMO. They are outstanding. They just feel more robust/solid under heavy braking vs. stock.
Powerstop rotors and pads. Stocks where starting to squeak so upgrade time. Definitely a difference in stopping power
I put in the powerstop z36 drilled and slotted rotors last spring, and I think they're pretty darn good. Great stopping power, and make me feel totally in control of towing my car trailer.
For my rear rotors I used Power stop Evolution cross drilled and slotted rotors and EBC Redstuff pads. They've been great.
My DBA T2-T3 are coated and have no rust on them after over 5k km.
I bought the Power stop drilled and slotted rear rotors and ceramic brakes for my 2010 Titan. I think it's great. I bought the kit, 2 rotors and 2 sets of pads for around $170 off carparts.com.
I did replace the rotors with Powerstop Evolution drilled, slotted & Ceramic Pads, (as others have mentioned) but was going to anyway. I think something like this rivet touching the rotor for a few stops damages them. Maybe because they are new, maybe because they are actually better, perhaps it is a Placebo, but after bedding the pads properly, I believe the vehicle stops much easier/faster and with more confidence.
My old car was a Honda Pilot, we drove from PA to GA several times a year. I soon discovered that Honda OEM rotors were crap and they would warp after one of our trips. Finally gave in, bought some Power stop rotors and ceramic pads. Have never had a warp issue ever since.
My power stop rotors lasted about 8 months before warping. Had the bright idea that I could save a few bucks putting them in for a few years before doing the tundra swap.
