    New member here. Been watching taco world for a while. Got a 2011 4 door sport. Getting ready to replace tires and brakes. Pull a trailer with lifted golf cart or 17 1/2 ft aluminum boat. Neither one is a lot of weight but rotors are definitely shot and thinking of upgrading to slotted or drilled rotors and new calipers on front. Suggestions?

    The Aussie guys swear by hawk products, and I’ve heard EBC is good as well.

    Porterfield r4s pads and centric premium rotors, engage abs at 70 on 35s and a 5400lb truck... They just grab more with more heat.

    I've had powerstop pads on my Corolla with big rotors and calipers, could get those to fade real easy. Do not recommend!
