To preface my main goal is to have nice quiet braking. The current brakes are actually VERY strong, and very loud. I think it is because i used organic pads... that destroyed my rotors.
Rear rotors have 185k miles on it... they don't seem very worn (groves etc) but the rear brakes are making a bit of noise...
Front rotors are gone after only 50k miles WTF? Deep groves and TONS of noise also.
Front pads still seem good with at least 30-40% remaining.
Rear pads at 30%
I figured by 200k, I am going to need all new pads/rotors.
The current rotors in front are Brembos from tirerack... and they are not holding up well.
OEM motorcrafts rotors are $105 a piece which is pricy...
OEM pads are $80 also which is pricy...
Yes I have priced all items with discounts from for dealers...
Any tips on other high quality brake parts? The current ones are making WAYYYYYY too much noise and the car sometimes sounds like a train while stopping while it always sounds like a semi lol.
