Brakes and Rotors

[Joel Groff]

2015 Ford Taurus SHO non-PP

What brakes and rotors should I get??

I always choose to go with ceramic pads all the way around but I am not sure if I should spend more on rotors or not? I do not by the economy **** that is cheap but I buy daily driver level and even better sometimes. I have not modded my car and its my daily driver so are there any recommendations on rotor brands i should buy?? I usually buy wagner ceramic pads and have been able to have great luck with those for both front and back. **** the metallic **** in this day and age.

Ebc yellow stuff. Front and rear.
Or oem pp pad
R1 concepts drilled and slotted rotors.
Pm me for good discount codes for r1 concepts as they sponsor me for autocross.

Akebono pads with centric premium blanks

I use the Akebono pads on my 08 Ranger. They stop well;wear well; and virtually no brake dust!

I've had good luck with OEM rotors and pads, listed for PI cars on Fordparts.com.

On my 2015 PP, DD, I went with Power Stop drilled and slotted rotors for the looks and stuck with the PP OEM pads. I'm happy with them.

Sounds like a very good choice

Get blank rotors, and spend the money on better pads. Pads are where it's at. For the street, as was mentioned 2013+ PP pads, EBC Yellow, Hawk HPS, Carbotech 1521. Nothing from a parts store. And if you want the best stopping power, that's not compatible with no dust or noise.

Power stops are fine but over many years I agree with dust and noise usually = better stopping. The hawks I put on my truck are much grabbier than the other stuff I have used. Dirty and squeak now and then. The semi metallics on my SHO are way better than any of the ceramics I used. same dirrrty

I’m seeing estimates for yellow stuff pads and ebc rotors for 1,100 holy smokes Am I looking in wrong place what do you pay?

 

[SHOdded]

maxbrakes should have g3500 rotors for your application at a reasonable price.

most important thing will be to bed the pads in properly after installation,

I’m thinking of going with ebc yellow stuff kits front and back slotted and dimpled just having trouble finding them for right price and I’m Curious if my performance package needs different sizes

sizes are the same. it is the calipers and pads that make the difference.

Out of curiosity, are the calipers just plug and play? Dont have a lot of experience around brakes, but have been looking to replace my pads and rotors soon. Was planning to go with R1 rotors and PP pads, but was also curious about switching to PP calipers for my non-PP. Also wasnt sure if in doing this, would I need to change out the master cylinder. Again, not much experience with brakes, so if something coming out of my mouth seems stupid, please just ignore it haha.

I put yellow stuff on my last DD and it was not worth the extra cost. Plus the mess they made.
I just saw dollar signs all over my wheels.
