Default Brake time

Hey guys looking at brakes just need input?
are EBCs yellow pads and sport rotors that much better than stock? i drive my truck everyday, light towing, plow, take it to the track and all the rest... truck is there to do everything i have drum brakes in the rear.... should i spend the money and get the EBC stuff for the front and then stay OEM in the rear or just stay OEM alll around? any other ideas for what i do with the truck? o yeah i am hard with brakes very proud with the fact that they lasted 54k

I had the best luck out of the PowerStop cross drilled and slotted rotors while using Reybestos ceramic pads. You can pick both up for less coin at a local CarQuest.

Raybestos Advanced Technology Ceramic Pads and Power Slot Rotors here, I love them......if you can find an Auto Barn near your area of LI, they carry Power Slot rotors..........
