    Hi all!! I'm gettin ready to replace my rear brake pads soon and I was hoping for some brake pad suggestions for different brands. I have a '19 Runner and I know I do want ceramic, but I wanna hear y'all's thoughts on brands you think would be best or have worked good for you :) thanks in advance.

    I would go with Akebono. They're low dust and the manufacturer of the OEM pads, I believe.

    I have them on mine, no complaints.

    If you're looking for something else, I'm running Raybestos Element 3 pads on the front and those are working out well. Nice stopping feel and very low dust.

    After how long the OEM pads lasted on my previous Tacoma and current 4Runner, I don't think you can really go wrong with them.

    I actually went with PowerStop Evolution pads on the 4Runner when the originals wore out, and I'm very happy with them. But, I really can't say if they are any improvement over the originals.
