Recommendations on performance brakes

[goose2232]

I have a 2013 RAM 1500 and the brakes are starting to pulsate so I am going to swap the front and rear out. I would appreciate any recommendations for performance pads and rotors that won't break the bank. Thanks in advance!

Powerstop has a good rep.

EBC Yellow Stuff pads and drilled/slotted rotors.
Made a big improvement on my 1500 4x4 5.7 and my Fiat Abarth. They are advertised as Street/Track brakes. They WILL reduce your stopping distance.
When I wear out my stock brakes on my '17 2500 6.4 4x4 4.10, these are going on.

My 2 cents.

Get a coated rotor to prevent rust, no need for drilled/slotted. You will only benefit from the drilled and slotted in racing applications where there is constant, repetitive braking.

Get a good performance pad, EBC yellow stuff or powerstop extreme pads.

Also, the bigger factor for stopping distance is tires. You could have race brakes but if you have tires with little grip it won't help that much.

I can also vouch for EBC slotted/dimpled rotors with green stuff pads

Very good performance upgrade over stock

Powerstop Z36 kit, best bang for your buck in my mind.

Very happy with their performance and feel....not happy I had to replace all the factory stuff at 18K miles though...

My 1500 5.7 3.92s was driven +/- 100 miles a day commuting in North Jersey. Stop & go or, 1,000,000 mph on Rt 287. I went thru a set of rotors & pads every year. (25,000 miles/yr.). I also drove it like I was being chased by a jealous husband all day, every day.

Pick these up for $180 for full set rotors and pads. They are made by powerstop and marketed under a different brand.

We offer just about all options but we do highly recommend our brake package we put together. It has become a go to package here. Many members here are running it. In fact the pics on our site are all forum members here!

It has very good stopping power, low dust, long lasting, and is coated to prevent rust. We also offer a double coating option as well as an option for caliper paint!

We have it listed here

That's the set I was looking at. How have they been doing? Any better with stopping power, noise, brake dust etc?
