Default Best Brake Rotor's and Pad's

I just found this forum and joined this evening. I have a 2007 FX4 F150 and I need to put new brakes on it. I pull a 30 ft travel trailer in the summer and a two place snowmobile in the winter. What brake rotor's and pads are the best? OEM, Duralast, ????

For the weight and subsequent heat from towing, IMO Powerslot cryogenic rotors would be best. The cryo treatment gives strength and the slots dissipate gases and heat. Hawk pads go best with the cryo rotors according to Frozen Rotors (the company that does the cryo treatment for Powerslot).

I have used Hawk LTS pads on my trucks and would recommend them. I would also check your rotors as you might not need to replace them. If you do replace the rotors I would say stick with the stock soild rotors.

If you want a price quote on any of the parts just let me know
