Does anyone know where there is a comparison between OEM and ANY aftermarket pads and/or rotors? I never tow a trailer but I drive my 2017 Expi like a sports car and I would like to find something with more stopping power without upgrading the calipers.
Any "upgrade" would require caliper change like a 6 piston system.
The OEM is more than enough stopping power for just the truck. (if you were towing in the mountains you might consider it) and the only hills I remember in Florida are the overpasses.
There are usually three different pads
1 the softest and cheapest but generate a lot of brake dust
2 semi-metallic (mid-grade) little harder pad and little less brake dust
3 ceramic (usually most expensive and the hardest pad.
If you driving like a bat out of hell and then stomping the brakes everywhere i suggest the softest and cheapest pads. just for the fact of generating the least amount of heat. you will use up faster but at least you have less chance of warping rotors and overheating the calipers.
