I have a 2003 Silverado 2500HD that I've owned since 2005 when it had 43K miles on it. Believe it or not, it still has the OEM brakes on it and it's sitting at just over 140K miles now. I have never had a vehicle get close to this many miles on a set of brake pads. I checked them about a year ago, and they were still good...but my guess is they're pretty much gone now.

I am getting new tires soon, and I'd like to replace the brake pads as well. Since I got such good braking and excellent life out of these OEM pads, I'd like to get the same kind.

I don't want to buy them from the Chevy dealer if I don't have to, because of their high prices. Do any of you know a good place to buy the same (I assume Delco) brake pads for less? I haven't searched yet, since I thought some of you guys may already have experience with this. In fact, I haven't even priced them at the dealer, which may be the best way to go anyhow.
