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
I did a full set of powerstop fully coated brakes on my car last fall. Ive been happy with them
I used powerstop rotors and pads and I used TRQ calipers. Powerstop calipers were backordered at the time. They're all just refurbished calipers that are powder coated so I don't think brand is that important for the calipers anyway.
Bosch is still usefull i use Rear disks since 25k km , and still good
I literally put these on my 2018 last Sunday and they feel great so far. Broke them in as instructed and they have been smooth riding. Took me about 2 hours taking my time and bleeding the brakes
I’ve been running Powerstops front & rear on our Touring since 2021 and they are still braking solid without any issues. I think proper break in procedure is important and this is just a daily. No track or auto crossing. But they panic stop wonderfully and predictably with zero chatter or pull.
I have these on my crv, had them for a few years and they are still going. Bit warped though, time for new rotors soon
I like powerstop they are Callahan breaks oe Nissin. the slotted and drilled was not good. Wore out super easy and squeaked all the time rusty.
