better truck brakes?

Some years ago I read a brake article which maintained that what we commonly refer to as a warped rotor is usually not really that. The article said that this is typically caused by pad material migration into the rotor surface after the rotor/pad have gotten very hot and the caliper maintains the pad clamped to the rotor. Something like a panic stop at a traffic light or similar. The material migration causes a slight increase in the rotor thickness at that point which causes the vibration as the brakes are applied and the rotor turns.

I cannot remember or locate the article.

To the original question I have gotten good results from Powerstop pads.
