So I did some searching last night (late) and found lots of good info on doing a brake job. I did the front pads a little while before my last deployment but my rear rotors are showing some grooving so I am going to change them all out; front and rear pads and rotors. I figure since I am towing over 7k lbs in the next 3 months from DC to Cali i better have some good stopping power. So, after searching, nothing really brand specific came up. I was going to get some power stop rotor from Pep Boys or autoanything dot com. Any ideas which ones are the best? Should I get slotted, drilled or both? I know I will be getting ceramic pads again, but the rotors are where I need some help choosing. thanks!

 

I use the Centric power slots and hawk pads. I know the Power Slots you can get from www.tirerack.com, www.allin1autoparts.com, or www.rockauto.com, and the hawks I get from www.hawkpadsdirect.com. I pull a 20' bass boat as much as I can and get great results from both. I don't use ceramic though, I like the LTS hawks. great stopping power no noise and no dust, at least not noticeable.

 

i got my power stops and cleanride ceramics from brake motive on fleabay...think i paid 150 shipped justr for fronts i think all 4 were 275 i think i ordered monday had wed or thursday...had em on since early dec and still look new....
