Question need new brake pads...

The brakes on the rig are getting down and I want to replace them with something better than the factory pads . Any suggestions on what are good pads , and which ones to steer clear of?? Thanks, John.

I used Bendix Titanium Plus. They seem to perform well, took quite awhile to break in. The only complaint is the fronts stay dirtier than the stock pads. I would use them again.

I have 49,000 on the stock brakes. I could get a few more miles out of them, but I figure get to them now before a rotor gets tore up..

I second that - what rollnxl says, that is. PFC pads are hard to beat. It is what ART supplies with their rotors. You can get them online or now even the AutoZone chain of parts stores is carrying them.

I have seen little to zero dust on my wheels since putting these pads on about 4000 miles ago.
