Brake pad recommendation?

[JSanchez]

I need to change the front pads soon & was wondering what would be a good replacement? Should I go with the factory pads, or is there something better that some of you are using?



Thanks,

J. S.

I bought a set of factory front pads (1-V1013267) from the dealer. After 80,000 miles I was still waiting for the original pads to wear out. They had given excellent braking and no noticeable rotor wear so I had no reason to experiment with aftermarket pads.

Agree'd



142k and original pads yet... I'll be replacing with OE factory pads...

I run EBC yellow in the front and green in the rear. You will never run stock pads again.

I run EBC yellow in the front and green in the rear. You will never run stock pads again.

Can you give more info. on these, or better yet, a link?

Thanks, Ray

Thanks for the info. I think I'll go with the factory pads for now; they've performed well & have lasted 50k miles so far. I'd probably get a bit more out of them, but am installing a manual hub conversion from EMS Offroad & figure I might as well change them while it's all apart. Thanks for all of your replys.

Might this be what you are looking for in your quest?

The yellow pads will stop you but with more wear on your rotors and more brake dust. Next ones I put on my truck will be green.
