Brakes

My 99 tahoe is eating up the front brakes pads. I do do some towing and city driving so I am not suprised to see this. I was wondering if somebody has some info on some rotors and brake pads that will hold up longer.
thanks

Assuming that you've been using GM pads, don't constantly tow very heavy loads and don't drive aggressively, best upgrade to improve pad wear to would be going to a ceramic pad such as those made by Satisfied Pro see:
