CLightning Posted November 19, 2004 Share Posted November 19, 2004 HI! I'm planning to replace all four pads and rotors in a few months. I think I have about 4-5K miles left on the pads and the rotors are warped. My mechanic told me that's its alot cheaper to buy a performance setup as opposed to regular aftermarket/ genuine parts. I was told not only will they be cheaper, they will last longer and perform much, much better. This is a daily driver and I have no intentions to race this thing. Is this true? Best bang for the buck? Any recommendations on what I should do? Pro's vs Con's? Thanks. -Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much did your set up cost? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnny3 Posted November 19, 2004 Share Posted November 19, 2004 Get OEM Toyota pads, have your rotors turned, you'll have excellent brakes that will last another 100k miles. importedcarparts.com have the OEM pads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
