Genuine Nissan Brakes or OEM Brakes for 2002 MAXIMA?
7:21 PM 6/8/2009
Hey guys. I recently purchased a set of drilled rotors and thinking of buying Nissan's Brake pad instead of OEM. But I heard that Nissan's Brake pad have wires in them which can damage the rotors quickly. Question is, should I get them or not? If not, what is the best and affordable Brake pads out there today since there are many nowadays? Please Guys.

I tried a set of PowerSlot rotors and Hawk HPS pads. My OEM rotors were shot and could not be turned again, so I tried this set up. I have about 30k miles on them and my front pads are about to need replacing. I don`t know if my m ileage is typical or not. I live in east Tennessee, lots of hills and curves so they take a beating around here. I don`t have any way of measuring the performance of this set up except from the driver`s seat, I feel they stop MUCH better than OEM. Good luck to you.
