Default Brake pad manufacturer/ part #

A while back I replaced my pads and rotors with autozone brand and honestly it does not brake that well now. Can someone tell me who manufactures the stock pads and what the part # is so I can find it on rock auto or somewhere else

I'm not sure who the MFG is, but I can tell you that they are overpriced and certainly not anywhere close to the best you can get for the price. I would recommend a set of rotors from brakemotive on ebay for $170. They used to come with pads, but doesn't look like they do any more. I recommend a good set of ceramic pads. They still stop well, and they produce much less brake dust.

Take the pads back to AZ and switch them out with the Duralast Cmax pads. They are ceramic. Should be #DGC966
