Brake pads POWER STOP or Bosch
Powerstop z23 or the z26 for the slotted rotors. I run them on all of my cars and we sell them at my automotive shop, great brand
At least for me, I'm using power-stop extreme pads.
I own a 91’ fj80 land cruiser. I have limited options for OEM stuff these days due to the truck being 30+ years old. I’ve got a CSF radiator in mine because having my OE unit re-cored was $1000+ and the csf was ~450. Toyota new stock, unavailable. I use 555 rod ends and sumo brand rebuild kits, koyo bearings. OE suppliers for toyota without the dealer markup. They’re quick to get here and prices are competitive (i got a guy). As long as its pretty competitive and a known brand, i’ll gladly put aftermarket stuff in my toyota as long as it is of good quality. Rock auto has aisin and denso stuff for these trucks regularly. Been putting bosch brake pads on it since i got it, no issues there.
Replaced it the with Powerstop and no issues at all, been 2 years and still perfect.
I did the tsx upgrade with power stop all around and stainless lines. My element stops on a dime.
I put Bosch quiet cast pads and BREMBO rotors on my 2018 and have been very pleased with both.
On mine I just swapped everything to the powerstop extreme pads. 2000 miles on the car. Absolutely silent and dust free. Definitely do the rears as well.
changed to power stop z26 pads while keeping the oem brembo rotors on my 2019 jeep srt, all is good and 1/3 of the price
On my ‘18 Scat (Charger) with 6-piston fronts, I changed to the powerstop fronts at 16k, didn’t touch the rears. At 40k now, no regrets, no incessant squealing, no dust.
Go with powerstop for sure. I bought their complete front and rear kit with drilled slotted rotors, bigger bore calipers, z23 performance padsand braided steel lines. Cost me about 800 dollars but if you want just the fronts that's an insanely good price for the front kit even if it doesn't include calipers.Powerstop is the only brand I see in your picture lineup that actually is performance driven.For the record as well I bought the kit 3 years ago and it's been solid I just replaced front and rear pads a couple months ago for the first time and the pads were perfectly even. Haven't had one issue in about 35k miles of driving.
