    Default Replacement Rotors for Tacoma

    I have read that Disk Brakes Australia (DBA) makes replacement rotors for the Tacoma. In a brief web search I only found rotors to fit the Tundra. Its about time for brakes and after 161,000 miles I'd bet it was time for new rotors. I wouldn't mind doing the Tundra brake upgrade but I have 15" wheels and they wont fit. thanks in advance

    I picked up the Porterfield units from Wheelers in Oregon. Good guys. Tell them you want the same set-up as Expeditions West and they will know the ones.

    My brakes are awesome now, and it was worth the $$$

    I ended up going with EBC brakes from http://www.buybrakes.com/ebc/
    Here they are on my Tacoma. So far they are great, wish I could have stuffed Tundra brakes with 15" wheels but these stop on a dime, well maybe a quarter

    Thank you so much for the quick reply! It looks like I'll have to wait 'till after the Moab trip to do the upgrade. I don't know if they will make a difference in stopping or not tho, locked up is locked up, right?
