trust brands that work...oem are nice but leave allot of brake dust and still squeel on occasion...ceramics are nice, low dust, last longer...and theres metallics which not many use. brand name aftermarket brake pads such as....ebc, akebono, hawk...these are cheaper then oem since toyota charges extra for shims.
