Default Time for brakes

So front pads are down to about 3mm. Rotors were turned around 20k miles (under warranty) so they can't really be turned again. So looking for pads and rotors. Looking at the EBC ones, like the black rotors. I've run their pads on sports cars and worked good. But also looking at other brands. What are you all running if not stock?

Default Brakes

I put on a set of Wagner OEX pads, with a new rotor (Damaged by an incorrectly installed set of pads, previous owner). Seem to be pretty decent, no complaints, but I've only got a few thousand miles on them.

I put powerstop rotors and pads on. They work great no complaints.

I did Akebono pads and Raybestos rotors on mine recently. Only a couple thousand miles on the fronts and about a hundred on the rears so far, but no complaints.

Thanks, was considering the EPC rotors, they have black slotted ones. Reviews seem good. Also checking out Power Stop.

I did Raybestos rotors and Wagner OEX pads all around on mine in October. There is virtually no brake dust on my wheels anymore. Everything performs great for me.

I'm running the brakes from the site vendor R1 Concepts. I've had them for about 7K miles and don't have anything negative to say about them. I think they're the best bang for your buck.

I did see those in the vendor section, was wondering if anyone was running them. I'll take a closer look at them. thanks.

I did Wagner OEX pads and Raybestos Rotors on mine about 2 months ago. Been really great so far. RockAuto had the best price on pads I could find, Ebay was cheaper on the rotors.
