    Popular thread I know. I've read all the threads I could find but most rotor recommendations are old and I can't find those.
    So I'm on AnythingAuto looking at the:
    EBC Ultimax Slotted Rotors LINK
    with the:
    EBC Green Stuff Brake Pads

    Before I dropp $250 on brakes I was looking to see if anyone has used these, if they stop good, and are quiet.


    ALSO: I found these on Amazon, seems too good to be true but the reviews are good so has anyone used these? Link

    EBC makes good stuff though it is a bit more than the off brand kits. Put slotted rotors on my 1st gen Tundra and it made a big difference in how long they lasted. Used to get about 15k on a set of pads, have 25 on these and they are still good.

    Great thanks for the advice! Hopefully I can get something here by the weekend.

    Just don't want to go with the OEM's again and take the high risk of warping. Too many people complaining about the OEM's warping and mine are currently warped.
