I originally had r1 concepts rotors and pads but the pads started to squeak like crazy at slow speeds. Rotors were still good so I put on akebono pads and they are perfect.
Pros: they are perfect
Cons: pads started to squeak

I just switched to R1 concepts Geomet pads, and drilled and slotted rotors. They're just as good as OEM from what I can tell.
Pros: as good as OEM
R1 concepts were an upgrade on my 2nd gen and got me through 4 years of abuse because the OEM ones would brake fade terribly. On my Camry they only lasted a year.
Pros: 4 years of abuse, no brake fade
Cons: only lasted a year on Camry
I put a set of r1 concepts pads and rotors on my wrx that I daily got them off Amazon for like $250 and came in like 2 days had them on for around 7500 miles and haven't had any issues.
Pros: no issues, fast shipping
Vehicle:
Subaru
Mileage: 7500 km
I have R1 concepts from Amazon, perfect for the car and stopping power.
Pros: perfect stopping power
Vehicle:
Kia
After two years or so I get horrible squealing when I stop in reverse. Rusting is pretty bad too.
Cons: horrible squealing, bad rusting
I havent had an issue with them in 2 years.
Pros: no issues
Vehicle:
Infiniti Q50
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
They seem good so far. I'm not very handy and I was able to put them on pretty easily.
Pros: easy to install, good so far
Pros: they fit perfectly, offer great performance and are cool enough to work on immediately after driving. Con: they sent the brakes for the electric parking brake when I have the cable parking brake. They have been 0 help in providing the bracket to adapt it to the cable break.
Pros: perfect fit, great performance
Cons: wrong brake type sent
