    I tow a rv need to replace brakes and rotors. Just wondering would the drilled and slotted rosters be better then the solid ones?

    I use and have been using brakemotive on all my cars and trucks for years. Drilled and slotted and ceramic pads. Search eBay for brakemotive.

    I used Powerstop rotors and pads on my last truck all the way around. Definitely a big improvement over OEM braking and rotors did not warp after a couple years in New England. I plan on buying a set once my current rotors wear out. Some reviews claim to have a fitment issue; we will see.

    Power stop drilled and slotted rotors warped on me within the first 4 months.
    Couldn't stand it any more and got the EBC blank disc/ pad kit. should be swapping them over this week.

    Did you follow the bedding procedure when they were installed?

    PROPER PAD BEDDING CAN PREVENT ROTOR WARPING. The break-in procedure is critical to brakeperformance. The reason for a proper break-in is to establish an even layer of friction material deposited on the rotors from the brake pads. It is very important that this initial layer of friction material is evenly distributed

    MGM's don't really need good quality brakes since they rarely hit the speed limit. I hear AutoZone runs a $9.99 brake pad special just for the MGM's. :boink:.

    OP and I both have white Tundras and therefore need some high quality stuff. :burp:

    That shade looks much closer to MGM than White.

    Here is a white snail:

    So white needs a turbo? MGM is fast while being naturally aspirated.

    Please we all know inferno is by far the most badass color and fastest.




    Oh and I put the drilled and slotted powerstop from autoanything on my ‘11 taco and they were great. I’ll probably put them in my Camry soon and tundra when needed.
