Need Brake Pads where to get them?
Local shop says I need them, , they get theirs from OReileys auto parts and I am afraid they are really cheap pads although they do carry Wagner pads .
Where to get the best pads ??
I have 90K miles on my GX
Thanks

Akebono, I use them on all my cars. Cant go wrong! Are they doing anything to the rotors? I bought Pep Boys "best" rotors because they had the Akebonos in stock but not the rotors. They warped in 2 days! Then the store manager said he found the ,lifetime Bosch rotors, Im not a huge fan of Bosch, but he didn't charge me for the upgrade. So far so good. Do your research.

Most brake pads on the market these days will work at least as well as oem, usually there's almost no difference between the cheapest and the most expensive, except possibly the warranty (lifetime on some of them).
I use Napa Adaptive One brakes on all my vehicles because they're one of the only brake pads that use a different material on the inboard pad versus the outboard pad. The reason for this is that you get less brake dust from the outboard pad, keeping your wheels cleaner, but they still stop as well or better than OEM due to the high friction/high graphite content in the inboard pad.

I've always used Akebono pads for my Honda and Toyota. Great pads.
