Before you buy
Front pads on a heavy truck or SUV do most of their work when the vehicle is loaded or descending a grade, so it helps to think about how you drive before choosing a set. A metallic friction material handles sustained heat well, but it can be harder on rotors and may be louder when cold. Those trade-offs matter more for a driver who hauls every week than for someone who mainly commutes.
Brake pads rarely work alone. Rotors, caliper hardware and brake fluid all affect how the pads perform, and worn rotors can cause pulsing even with new pads. Before installing, inspect the rotor surface and thickness, and check that the caliper slides move smoothly. Replacing pads and rotors together often gives a more predictable pedal feel than mixing old and new parts.
