    I have a 2008 tundra with warped rotors. I have a slide in camper that weighs approximately 2000 lbs wet.
    What would be the best rotors and pads to replace them with?
    Are drilled and slotted rotors best w oem pads?
    Please include the names of rotors and pads you would recommend. thanks Gary

    I put on Centric anti corrosive rotors with Hawk pads and love them. I do not tow though.

    I've use PowerStop drilled and slotted rotors on other vehicles. When the time comes on my Tundra, I'll probably go with those with the factory pads.

    Ditto on the power stop rotors I run Wagners for pads and I tow a 3700lb trailer and they have been flawless
    No brake fade or noise
    I run them on all 4 corners

    I have been running the Wagner's for about 8months now with new rotors because my power stop setup with cross drilled and slotted rotors got warped from too many power stops! (Ironic?)

    Wagner's stop just as good and brake dust is minimal. Ill probably stick with these.
