AM starting to look into brake pad and rotor replacements for my 2013 Avalanche. Am starting to periodically get indications the it is getting time for the front. Plus never have been a great fan of the typical GM truck brake fade from the OEM setup. Have been reviewing the posts on the forum and see many brands mentioned, but it seems that for everyone that has had success and are happy, there are just as many that have had problems with that same brand. Also seems that the majority of the posts are for the older models and doing a GMT800 to GMT900 upgrade. Brands under consideration are EBC, Brakemotive, Ppower Stop, Hawker Performance. Seems a lot of the replacements (to include all of the brands mentioned) are only getting 16,000 to 20,000 miles before having to replace again, which seems very bad considering that the OEM brakes last so much longer, which make me think about sticking with OEM pads and just upgrading to slotted rotors since we all know the OEM rotors are garbage.
