Drilled Brembo max rotors and Brembo pads
Reviews of Brembo parts For Business
Italy
For the pads I went with:
Brembo Pad Set (P56048N + P54039N) for $110
I paid $25 ea. to have front rotors resurfaced at O’reilly and put brembo pads and new sensors on my wife’s 2017 Macan GTS for a grand total of $190 which included a new can of brake clean and new caliper bolts from Pelican.
Dad used brembo on kadjar, expensive asf but worth it
Brembo HH Sintered Pads Upgrade. Worth it!
Bought new 2004 Sienna XLE Braun handicapped conversion with 240K miles still going strong but only 14 mpg. Another 2004 Sienna Limited bought used in 2013 w/130K miles now 210K miles. I’ve replaced the suspension on both, added 3rd generation Big Brake calipers, Pads (use Akebono or Advics) and rotors (Fremax, Brembo, or Raybestos in order of quality) to get better braking, see SiennaChat for details.
Get the Akebono ProAct pads, and good quality rotors. I bought Brembo rotors last time, and they worked well.
I know nobody asked about parts, but I’ve been happy with Brembo and Zimmerman coated rotors, and ATE ceramic pads. They aren’t grabby like the stock setup but don’t seem any less strong. Smoother and easier to modulate.
They wanted like 3k for Brembo front brake pads and rotors for my scat pack at the dealership. I just got power stops instead and had them installed for less than 1/6th the price. The dealership told me Brembos are always on backorder so they jacked the prices, idk if that's the real case... But they were disgustingly expensive. Imo, the power stops feel the same and the rotors are holding up better. My brembo rotors warped before 20k miles of daily driving (mostly highway)
For breaks, I will actually advise against the OEM stuff, because it’s really not that great, especially if you have the Brembo package. There are significantly better pads out there, the Brembo ones are hot garbage.
