who makes good brakes ?
i posted this a while ago but who makes good brake pads? ive herd mixed things about Wagner thermo quiets and never heard anything about Wagner severe duty . any help would be great im clueless when it comes to brakes. ive also heard ceramics are good but they tend to crack and don't stop as quickly. thanks
---AutoMerged DoublePost--- i just need something quiet and not dusty |
do you tow? i run napa severe duty on the front and seem to work very well and no dust. i had the premium advance on the fronts at first, they lasted 70k towing but dusty. napas are hard, time will tell what they do to the rotors. hope this helps...Bowie Trucking, LLC

i tow on a semi regular basis but i really don't use my brakes. i use down shifting and my exhaust brake most of the time so i just went with factory ford pads. i used the "dura last cmax gold" on my 94 and they wore down to nothing in 10,000 miles. and that's mainly break drag.

i don't use my brakes enought to know what the dust would be like lol if i need to stop fast i can shut it down pretty quick but if you don't drive with your head up your :moon: then you shouldn't need to stop fast. when i'm towing i know where i'm going and slow down gradually.

just bought Wagner severe duty love them so far no dust no noise
|
Were they expensive. Did you buy rotors?
|
Performance Friction makes Carbon Metallic pads that are better than stock. They emit less dust and last longer. If your hard on your brakes then they are worth looking at.
|
56 per set and no need for new rotors mine are in great shape
|
Does Wagner have a website? Im at 63.000 miles and almost due.
