R1 Concepts are the only brakes I use on my cars. Last far longer then OEM.
Pros: Lasts longer than OEM
Have been putting r1concept rotors on my vehicles for 10 years. Corolla, lexus is 250, ford f150, saab 9-3, volvo xc 90. Have always gotten drilled/slotted braking performance seems to be twice as good. The last few cars I know I got my geomet rotors and ceramic pads. But 8 years ago got rotors on my lexus. Felt great never really had a problem. I was showing off in the back roads of wv, super hill, county roads. Maybe a 20 minute drive and I did have the car filled with people. Hit 95 mph a couple times. Everything was fine got back parked, my back rotors were smoking for atleast 10 minutes very visible. Still never had any issues after that. That is apparently super common. Not cause for too much concern. Never had it with any other vehicle any other time. I speed excisively. Just saying if you intend to use them for a track car I'd wanna be aware of that. Who knows if the geomet rotors would've improved things.
Pros: good braking performance
Cons: rotors smoked after hard use
I used the R1 concepts drilled and slotted kit with pads. Front and rear total was like 500 bucks. Did it myself. They work great.
Pros: work great, easy install
I have a drilled and slotted set with performance pads from R1 Concepts (was going ti replace pads but 1 rotor was bad). I have had them for about 4 months now and only complaint us the squeeky pads. I have a larger vehicle (Forester) so i feel the fade a bit sooner than most, but i feel these rotors do a good job of preventing that. I dont ride the brakea that hard but its still noticable.
Pros: prevents brake fade
Cons: squeeky pads

I've had mine for like 60k miles. 87k ish on the clock. Just changed everything. Yearly inspection and the shop rejected it for brakes. Brake installer said the weren't that bad. I bought an R1 Concepts kit. Front and rear rotors plus pads all around. $220 shipped on Walmart+ (also found on Amazon or Rock Auto). The shop had a brakes special: $160 installed for new pads. Since I had the parts and rotors take like 30 seconds to swap out, they charged me for two brake installs at $150 each. So all in installed was like $550 after taxes.For reference: the shop that rejected it quoted something like $500 for the front and $500 for the rear. And I don't think it was all new everything.
Cons: rejected for brakes

Red doesn\u2019t have much dust. Same with green. I don\u2019t recommend the R1 concepts sport pads. They are very dusty. Almost worse than stock. Bite and feel is good though.
Pros: Bite and feel is good
Cons: very dusty
