Default DONT buy pro-stop brakes

I bought these for my car, they are horrible. Noisy, they work OK, and the dust is just out of control! Bought at Pepboys as the most expensive I could buy. Totally lame!!!!

For all those guys that go to shops to have their brakes done for $149.00, you get what you pay for. All those independents will put on the cheapest pads possible to make the most margin on the car. It isn't just Pep Boys, its everywhere.

Actually bought for my 99 Tacoma. The dust is really the worst thing about these, it makes me have to clean my rims all the time. In the past I bought the nicest ones Kragen had and they were GREAT. Almost no dust, and good performance.
