Celica Forums General Discussion General replacing breaks

i think my pads are shot, i can here them rubbin when i apply the breaks, the sucky part is all the local auto stores wont be able to get my pads in until thursday =( i hope my rotors wont be shit by then cause i have to get to work but if they do i will be should i just get the regular pads they sell at stored or is it worth the extra money to buy trd pads? also how can i tell if i have scratched the rotor and need to place it?

How many miles do you have? How far is your drive to work everyday? Have you taken off a wheel and checked your pad life?

Brake noise can easily be caused by vibration well in advance of full wear.

how much are TRD pads i've been thinking about getting some?

i saw the pads online for 40 something im checking the pads tomorrow, i live about 10 miles from my work and i have 58,000 on the car but i bought it was 46

let me know where i need to replace mine bad.

i've been quoted, i think, $70-90 for a pair of TRD GT-pads (only the front).

i'd go with Raysbestos.

Its Brakes not Breaks.

he just need a break from work to fix his brakes

ahh thanks for the spell check

Get the brakes from toyota(stock or TRD) or an aftermarket brake pad. I replaced mine at a local auto shop and i don't know what kind of brake pad it was but it was terrible!
