Highlander Brake Pads

I have 60,000 miles on my 2002 Highlander 2x2.
I need to replace my brake pads fairly soon.

I notice some places are selling ceramic pads. Are they any good? Or
should I stay with metallic/semi metallic pads?

Any recommedations? NAPA/Auto Zone/Discount Auto Parts?

Any information is greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Nick

OH MY ___, YES, the ceramic pads are the greatest since sliced bread. I can
tow my trailer DOWN the mountain and NOT lose my breaking pressure. They are
sure stopping power in any weather. I have them on both my vehicles and will
NEVER go back to regular pads again.

Re: Highlander Brake Pads

I have to wonder IF your Highlander has ceramic pads. The guy at the parts
counter told my that my daughter's '02 PreRunner had ceramic pads as factory
equipment.

Re: Highlander Brake Pads

Stick with OEM pads unless you can put up with squeaks and squeals when you
brake!
