I ran green stuff pads and rotors from EBC on my Infiniti and they were definitely a big upgrade over stock. They had lots of grab and felt good. I can't comment on longevity because I upgraded the calipers and rotors, but for the two years they were on the car the were great.

Thanks, how about longevity ? I know its a heavy truck and driving habits matter but have heard some brands last like 20k which sucks

Why are you doing the rear brakes only? Have you changed the fronts? I would be cautious to change the brake bias by using a higher performance pad in the rear then the front. Regardless, the Powerstop Z36 kit is a proven setup for many.

Thanks ! I got the vehicle around 1 yr ago ... looks like previous owner had changed fronts and they seem good, rear needs to be changed

I used Hawk Performance LTS (green box) on my last GX460 and they were great. Stopped comparable if not better than OEM, less dust and they wore well, they will be my next go to when my OEM pads are done. EBC also makes good pads, so you will probably have simlilar results with those.
