I recently (about 5K miles ago) did Powerstops and absolutely love them. I’ve done many brakes on many of my Toyota/Lexus SUVs and most of the time have had best luck with OEM, but the OEM on my Sequoia not so much (warping/pulsing). With much research found the Powerstop drilled and slotted are great for these large beasts…and indeed they are!
Get the Powerstop z36 don’t waste the extra money on the red calipers.
I have had good experiences with PowerStop rotors/pads. I tow an 8k camper regularly with my half ton on stock wheels/height.
I use and recommend the Z23 Evolution Sport Pads. They refer to it as Carbon Fiber Ceramic. It is incredible. It really last a long time. Has great stopping power and it produces very little brake dust.
Their brakes are quiet and last a long time compared to my previous experiences. Pads going on two years. No noise, no squeaks, no rattles. very minimal brake dust.
I self installed Z23 Powerstop Evolution Sport slotted rotors & carbon fiber ceramic pads kits front and rear from Rock Auto. Superior to OEM in every aspect. Better longevity, quieter, with greatly improved braking.
I replaced the front rotors and pads on my 2020 V60 with a Z23 Powerstop kit I bought from Rockauto. I opted for the standard rotors instead of slotted and drilled. It’s been just over 2 weeks and they are very smooth.
Powerstop Z-23 Carbon Ceramic.. I used these on my C63 and they were far superior to stock in performance without any dust.
I am currently running Powerstop Trackday Spec pads on track and OEM pads on the street. I usually swap pads the weekend before, or sometimes even the night before my trackdays. Swapping pads only takes me maybe an hour, if that much, so it’s really no big deal to swap them in and out for trackdays. The Powerstop pads are definitely lacking bite at street temperatures but I wouldn’t say they are dangerous to drive with.
I have them and haven't seen any improvement in braking. They're also very noisy.
