So... of course my brakes and my tires are up for replacing at the same time I have my 50,000 mile servicing which includes a tranny fluid flush so I'm trying to save money where I can.
I searched far and wide for decent brakes at a cheap price. I am doing the brake job myself and I know from prior experience dealerships charge anywhere from $800-1200 for full brake jobs on cars. I've never done a job on a truck and this is my first truck and first brake job on it so I'm sure the dealership prices are outrageous due to the larger rotors and pads than a car.
I found a set of non-brand name "Nakamoto" brakes from 1aauto.com and got the full set of front and rear ceramic pads and front and rear drilled and slotted rotors all for $220 shipped to my door.
The price was so ridiculously low that I researched online all I could and found only positive feedback on their brakes and rotors from various websites so I decided to pull the trigger and give them a shot.
They came in today and the packaging looked great and from what I can tell the product looks great as well. Obviously I won't know until I install them if they are going to perform well, but I will update this page on my experience. Keeping my fingers crossed on these hoping they are a steal and any feedback on anyone that's tried these would be appreciated as well.
