Brake Rotors and Ceramic Brake Pads
I own a 2002 Honda Odyssey. I turned it into a camper. I added a full set of front and back brake rotors and a pad kit. Since, I travel on the road to selected locations on uncertain roads. I found, I needed to replace my brakes. The van is on the heavy side. These rotors run cooler and these pads do not squeal. I needed them traveling down mountain roads. Check the link below for the specs for your vehicle. I highly recommend this brake kit. There is more than one seller. I bought from the first link. Sometimes they sell out.
Why Ceramic brakes pads may be a better option. You can choose organic, ceramic or metallic brakes. Organic brakes are a low-cost option. If you do not drive much, you may choose organic brakes pads. Ceramic brake pads are more reliable in a wider range of temperatures and driving conditions. They are very quiet. Wear & Tear on Brake System is very low. Their performance is considered better than organic pads. If you travel or do a lot of commuting. This is your pick. Lastly, if you are racing, then metallic is your choice. Metallic brake pads are noisy and offer high performance. You may even consider semi metallic, still a little noise.
Vibration When Braking
While I never experienced shaking or vibration when braking. This issue can be the result of warped rotors. Some Honda Odyssey owners have reported this issue. I upgraded to a full set of slotted brake rotors and ceramic brake pads for my Odyssey. Since I use my Honda Odyssey as a camper, I carry extra weight. These brakes make all the difference. One of the best upgrades I did. I have not experienced any squealing when I drive or brake.
