2016 Toyota Avalon Hybrid with 170k miles.
-Still original brakes
-Only done maintenance on it, no issues.
immediately replaced rotors/pads and replaced yellowed headlights. All the parts were dirt cheap on Rock Auto.
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 swapped my FJ cruiser stock front brakes for the larger GX460/V8 4Runner discs, calipers, and shields, as well as adding stainless lines as a nice upgrade package.
I recently replaced front and rear pads and rotors on my 2021 CE TURBO with Raybestos EHT3 pads and element 3 rotors (rear) and Raybestos specialty performance rotors (front). I'd highly recommend them. They stop a little better than stock and handle heat a lot better. The rotors are also fully coated and don't rust. They've been 100% quiet and feel great.
Last point since you're doing brakes, I'll plug Raybestos Element 3 pads and rotors. Installed them on my wife's car last year and I'm genuinely impressed at the braking response in her car.
recently went to brakemasters to get brake pads for my 2014 rav 4. Set of front brake pads only ( 4 pads) with labor total $180.
Raybestos Brake Pads - SGD924C - $25 obo
I've used Raybestos before on VW GTI. They had a distinct feel and reminded me of... Literally every other set of brake pads I've ever used. Just save your money bro.
