tirerack brembo rotors and performance pads

hey, i finally have insurance on my 4runner! yes im excited. but the brakes... well its either me, or they suck. they are the stock brakes. i was wondering if anyone has bought the brempo rotors and some performance pads from tirerack.com (i know someone has) i just want to know it it was worth it? did it make a big difference?

What year is your 4Runner? I warped a new set of rotors on my 95 'Runner three times in about 18 months. I finally just replaced them after this last time and bought a set of Brembos with PF brake pads. It did not significantly improve the performance of my braking, but it obviously smoothed out the braking and, as a result, no pulsing equates to better stopping power. My main concern is how long these will last before I need to get them turned. I'm obviously hoping for better results than from my last set, but at this point I just don't know.
