Just curious who here has done the bigger rear brake upgrade and what your opinions on it are/were. I need to do brakes here shortly and need to do something about my rears. Debating on whether to stay with stock sized pads/rotors or upgrade. FYI: I got a 99 camry v6. I believe the upgraded brakes are off of a gen 3 camry wagon v6 and consist of larger rotors and calipers but not 100% certain. Haven't been on this forum in months. Didn't know if you guys who have gone this route noticed any improvement in stopping as far as less front biased braking or best to leave the rears stock and just upgrade to a more aggressive pad.

Just get better pads (i.e. EBC Red/Green, Hawk HPS, Axxis, etc.). The fronts are what are worth swapping.

i had a set from es300 wagon. They are pretty big compared to my 99 solara's reas.

i don't have a camry or solara, but the avalon comes with the upgraded dual piston front calipers and im pretty sure bigger rear rotors too. car stops on a dime

remember that the tires also play a role in ur stopping power

my camry has dual piston fronts, but has pretty tiny rears (or at least i think so) and it stops pretty good (in summer, winter sucks) Tires do make a huge difference! but i drove my friends 4 door camry to mine and has single piston fronts and wow huge difference!

Dual's FTW!

dont know about my rears though, im gonna have to look into that now!

get the rears from an older es300 they bolt right up and are awesome.

I've gone ahead and just decided to stick with stock sized rears. Didn't feel like I needed the extra weight in the rear and went ahead and ordered some good pads at least. Going with CarboTech's street compound
