I did use raybestos pads for my girlfriend’s Yaris and they are holding up fine and were a fraction of the price of advics!
Pros: holding up fine, fraction of price
Vehicle:
Toyota Yaris
Raybestos has always treated me well. They feel close to OEM but last longer and stop stronger under load. I've run them on work trucks and they held up fine with trailers.
Pros: close to OEM, last longer, stronger stopping, good for towing
Went Raybestos and they have been good so far. I wasn't impressed with the pads machining quality though. They just looked rough, but I haven't had any issues in 20k miles with some towing use.
Pros: good performance, no issues, good for towing
Cons: rough machining quality
Mileage: 20000 km
Raybesto Elemental rotors. You wont have to deal with rust on the hats anymore.
Pros: no rust on hats
I’ve ordered the Raybestos Element3 for multiple vehicles and been happy with them
Pros: happy with them
Vehicle:
Jeep Compass
I have them on all 4 corners of my truck, 3yrs no issue. They bled like any other caliper.
Pros: no issues, bled easily
I put Akebono ProActs on my car 3 years ago, and it has the softest pedal of any car Ive ever owned; I almost have to plan ahead before hitting the brakes it takes so long to come to a complete stop. I Put the Raybestos E3 on my wife's van (which previously had warped rotors), and the braking was fantastic for the final 2 years we kept it. More bite, no warping (even with the Semi-metallic pads), stop on a dime, no noticeable noise. Meanwhile the Akebonos on my car squeal like frightened pigs now, and the rotors just started warping (hence why Im on this sub, comparing other brands).So I'm going back to the Element 3s, or moving up to PowerStop. IDC what Scotty Kilmer says about the Akebonos - the main thing I want from my brakes is to stop the car quickly and safely, hopefully without warping the rotors. Everything else is secondary. The friction on the "premium" ProActs is mediocre at best (also no warranty, but that doesn't really factor in for me). And with my family as passengers, Im more concerned with stopping safely than a little noise or dust, or pad longevity.YMMV, but for me, Im done with the 'bonos.
Pros: good braking, no warping
Cons: soft pedal, squealing, warping
I like the Raybestos E3 coated rotors but I'm in the rust belt. Stops the hat and edges+vanes from rusting for a couple years. The E3 pads use to be good but they changed the formula and moved from China to India and the last couple sets have squeeled during braking when hot or in reverse so I would personally recommend Advics or Akebono ceramic.
Pros: rust prevention
Cons: squealing brakes
I have moved over to power stop as well. I've had problems with the Raybestos E3.
Cons: problems with Raybestos E3
