Brake discs Detroit Axle or MEYLE
Reviews
i have detroit axle slotted and ventilated, might be drilled idk don’t feel like checking rn lol, brakes nd they’ve been pretty good the past few months i’ve had em
Pros: pretty good brakes
On my Honda CRV I've found the best value for money for driving on Michigan salted roads are the Deteoit Axle OEM coated rotor & pad re0lacement kit, comes with inserts, grease, top up brake fluid, brake cleaner, eventually the electroplated coating on the braking surface wears off from braking & you get rust spots if they sit outside covered in the salt slush, but the hub mating surfaces & venting fins been covered in 2 Michigan winters of snow & salt & still not a spot of rust on the rotor.
Pros: good value, rust resistant
Cons: coating wears off
Vehicle:
Honda
I bought Detroit Axle front/rear drill and slotted rotors for my renegade and work awesome. For the price they have been great.
Pros: work awesome, great price
Detroit axle rotors and pads on mine. Best value imo. Fusion breaking power is sufficient as is.
Pros: best value, sufficient power
Honestly I have used these rotors on my car they work perfectly fine they also come with 10 year limited wararnty. These rotors are not any worse than the expensive brands the only difference is the price. If you don't feel comfortable using these that's totally up to the individual but these have a lot of good reviews and so far I'm impressed with the stopping power these provide. They are drilled though so maybe not as tough as the non drilled ones however the holes do help with stopping I can vouch they stop my car a bit better than the OEM non slotted ones.
Pros: good stopping power, 10 year warranty
Cons: drilled, may not be as tough

Mine have been Detroit Axel. Set of 4 rotors and pads and a can of cleaner for a decent price, shipped quickly to boot. My cars go to/from work and an occasional road trip. I'm not hauling anything heavy, I'm not overtly hard braking, and I'm not racing; just a daily driver.
Pros: decent price, quick shipping
I have also tested out detroit axles drill and slotted rotors. they are absolutely way thinner than I expected but still get the job done. I test them on daily driving and they hold up great in my experience. 4 months and going.
Pros: hold up great, daily driving
Cons: thinner than expected
I bought mine from Amazon. They are Detroit Axle or something like that. They had decent reviews.
Pros: decent reviews
I had the Detroit axel rotors on my fronts for a while and they were just a little too small and caused the pads to squeak after a while from uneven wear since part of the pad didn\u2019t hit the rotor due to it being a couple millimeters too small.
Pros: null
Cons: too small, caused squeaking
I did my brakes about a week ago and was fine since the other day...getting a high pitched woooo intermittent sound after driving a few miles some times goes away when I depress the pedal. Also chatters on little bups and pot holes a bit now too.
Cons: high pitched sound, chatters
