I've used many cheap Chinese brake pads. They worked, but wore quickly. Or they made lots of dust and wore out the rotors. Or they squealed like a pig. Sometimes I had to grind them down to get them to fit. Got the cheap crap I paid for. Garbage.

I'm definitely not after any of that business. I've done that route before andd a little extra $ w stimulus and was fortunate enough to work through it all for the most part. I'm ready to do the work and just drive and hopefully come to a stop.

My experience with PowerStop is that they are the same Chinese pads sold at AutoZone put in colorful boxes, sold with Chinese rotors that are cut a second time here in the USA to get the wobble out. Your experience may be different. Let me know.

I used the powerstop kit with hawk pads, might be why I like them so much.

Hadn't considered hawk, I guess I didnt really think about performance aftermarket too much only because I'm just looking for something slightly better than stock. I used to run the HPS pads w C5 Z06 calipers and they were great. Used to really screw w the counter guys when I drive up in a buick and need vette pads.

I've loved the Hawk pads. They were the only ones that didn't give trouble on my Excursion.

I've used Wagner OEX pads on two vehicles and I liked them a lot. Good stopping power with minimal brake dust and wear great. I will admit that I didn't tow "heavy" with them for any prolonged trips, but when I did tow, they were more fade-resistant than the stock pads that came with the vehicles.
