Would like some feedback on the TRD brake pads please. Noise, dust, cold braking, hot braking, rotors life, etc...

Thank you in advance

only girls need pads.

oh.




BRAKE pads. OK>. Generally speaking, better pads = kill rotor faster = more dust = more heat resistant = brakes better = there you go.

Default Pads

I've heard that the TRD pads dust a lot and noisy but they're stopping power is great.

I use Endless NA-Y pads. Minimal dusts with good stopping power for street use. A bit pricy though.
