Pads and Rotors

Hey guys I need to replace my pads and rotors. I haven't really heard much about this topic. I was wondering if you guys knew of a good brand to go with. Any input will be very helpful.

Thank You,

Ty

Brembo GT rotors and Porterfield R4-S pads(super low dust).

Love them.

Any significant difference between OEM rotors and the Brembo GT rotors?


I just replaced w/ OEM rotors and Akebono pads (I am happy with the lack of dust).

Its larger and lighter(unsprung weight). Swapped out the calipers too at the same time, so I'm not sure if it will fit the OEM calipers or not.

Check out kompressed55's recent DIY threads for details.
