I'm running Hawk LTS pads all around, Centric rotors up front, Brembo blanks in the back. I've been very happy with them so far.

while i have not had a chance to run them on my GX yet(will convert over when it comes time to do brakes), i have always had good luck with LCE (LC Engineering) and their slotted and cross drilled rotors -i know there is a huge debate on the blanks vs drilled/slotted, and it goes back and forth. i have run both type is several applications. i have found i have less rotor warping with the drilled rotors. anyhow yeah LCE makes a set that will work and be a good option if you want a sporty look that is also just as functional...

front rotors

rear rotors

i will be running this on my GX within the next 6months
