Tunda Brake Upgrade - Rotors ??
Just picked up a set of 231 mm calipers for the Tundra brake upgrade. I've narrowed down the rotors to OEM Tundra or Brembo's. My question is how much of a difference is there between the two? Are you just paying for the Brembo name?
Also, the calipers are in good condition and I could get away without repainting them just clean them up a bit more but if you were to paint them would you powder coat them or spray paint them?

i couldnt tell you about the rotors, but as far as the paint goes i just used caliper paint from auto zone and it has held up for a few years now. a bit easier/cheaper than powder coat

I just completed my upgrade yesterday, I went with Brembo's because they were about $35 cheaper a piece than OEM. If the price was equal, I probably would've stuck with OEM.
Check out the price here:
