Wagner Pads, Bosch QC Rotors. Duralast pads are made by Durago, available on RockAuto. They’re nothing special but they work fine. I like Wagner brakes, other good options include Bosch, Centric and Reybestos. For materials; Ceramic will be quieter and less dusty. Semi-metallic usually have higher fade point but are noisier and let off a fair it more dust which coats your wheels. I’ve been having good luck with the Bosch Quietcast rotors. Advice High Carbon are probably actually be the best option but are one of the more expensive options. Raybestos coated also seem to hold up decently and are a little cheaper. Just avoid anything drilled or slotted it just acts as a cheese grater and acts as less surface area for the pads to grab.
When it comes to rotors and pads, Bosch Quiet Cast are much better than anything else I've tried in 25 years of XJ ownership.
I think it comes down to the composition of rotor itself, the resilience of the coating and probably manufacturing process, they seem to last and perform a lot better than even the other premium coated rotors I've tried over the years. Similar to OEM German car rotors, they still look like new even after multiple Canadian winters.
I think I did some deep dive research and settled on Bosch quiet cast with Akebono pads. I think I’ve also used eccentric in the past. No complaints with any of the above.
Ive had good luck with bosch quietcast
Bosch is still usefull i use Rear disks since 25k km , and still good
Compare the price with Walmart. I bought Bosch ones at Rock, they're great!
Bought DBA T3 4000 rotors, DFC 5000 pads, a nice jack from harbor freight and some jackstands all for about 900 and did it all myself in about an hour and a half. Changing these pads and rotors are honestly a breeze.
Dba rotors and nothing else
Got Bosch for my brakes and rotors. Just make sure you know which rear rotors you have. First time I accidentally ordered the 316mm from Rock Auto and they were slightly too big.
New brakes! DBA 4000 series rotors and EBC Yellowstuff pads. Couldn't take the chattering/warped factory rotors anymore.
