What do you guys recommend for me I need good pads and rotors I dont want to break my pockets either. I have the brembo sport rotors in mind and the aem pads in mind also help me out

 

the question is: what do you want to do? OEM/Bendix pads are actually pretty good. Btw, I guessing but those AEM pads are just privatelabled. There is no way that AEM has invested in brake manufacturing operations/tooling. Kinda like how Nology (sparkplug wires) sells motor oil too...just buying it and selling it under their name. Or like Kirkland socks/tires/cookies/condoms at Costco

also, a huge handling/braking upgrade might be to just upgrade your tires with some good rubber. You can have the sweetest brakes/rotors/brake fluid and rims but with crappy tires, it will all be negated.

 

if you're just streeting, brembos stock sized are fine imo, u can get them crossdrilled and slotted to from alot of shops. Endless brake pads work great, their street pad is pretty good, more of a street/sport pad. I agree, AEM pads are just rebadged.

AEM pads are made by Nissin, same as the OEM pads, but they are a different compound I hear.

Axxis MM pads are a nice little upgrade.

Brembo Blanks are just about the best you can do for rotors without going to an upsized brake setup.
