Default 2010 Ram Brakes

My truck is almost ready for a new set of brakes all the way around and I am trying to determine the best replacements. My local auto parts store price is about $500 for their Professional quality and Chrysler wants around $750. However, I have been looking at ebay and have found a couple sets that I could go all the way around for around $250. So I have a couple questions:

1. has anyone had any experience with the Hydra Brakes or Max Auto Parts I have found on ebay. Both companies are Canadian and the products are manufactured in Canada and are ISO9002 certified with 1 year warranty against warping and the Hydra Brakes have a life time warranty against cracking.

2. both of the ebay sets are cross drilled and slotted, for a dd that is used to pull an 8000lb trailer is drilled and slotted the right choice.

Thanks.

Never heard of them. But my advice-- don't be too cheap when it comes to brake pads for safety reasons.

I agree 100%. I will say that I was going to pay $400 for a set of front rotor and pads until I saw the made in China sticker at my local Lordco. I do like the fact that the Ebay ones are made in Canada.
