    I am due for breaks soon and am thinking about upgrading my rotors and brakes for my 2019 Tundra Limited. I want something better for towing my travel trailer. Any thoughts or experiences?

    I have over 60k miles on my Stoptech slotted rotors. Still smooth as silk.

    I have had good luck with NAPA Adaptive One slotted rotors and pads. I got my truck used with 42k on it with these brakes and now have 75k on the same rotors. I did just change out the front pads. I do a lot of towing. Half of my trucks miles are towing a 7k+ travel trailer.

    Focus on the pads. That's where your money is best spent.

    For rotors go smooth/blank or slots. Slots have some benefits, but have increased cost so depending on your budget, blank rotors and better pads might be wiser choice. Avoid cross drilled like the plague.
