I've had a set of PowerStop Z23 pads, rotors, and calipers, and I drive my card HARD and still doing just fine 30k miles later. Easily 40-50% left. I used to track my car, pre COVID, and that's about the only straight up abuse I've done. I also drive year round through the winter time. I've never had pads wear down faster because of the rotors being drilled/slotted!
I put on the slotted PowerStop rotors and have been very happy with them.
Used a lot of Powerstop brake rotors and pads and I can say that they worked well for me.
replaced all 4 rotors with Powerstop and works like a charm
Power Stop is a super nice upgrade. Been using on my cars since I started driving. I just upgraded my 16’ Frontier to them last week and it was mind blowing how much better they are than stock.
I like the duralast gold brake rotors. They have a really nice coating to help prevent corrosion, if you’re in the north east I really recommend them. They do need to be bedded once installed to get rid of the coating on the braking surface of the rotor. You pretty much just get the car up to 20mph and hit the brakes a little aggressive, you do this a few times each time increasing your speed. It comes with clear instructions how to do it.
Powerstop changed my life! Slotted and drilled and run like a champ
I put the PowerStop rotors (slotted and drilled) and (ceramic) pads on our cars. They work just fine for our everyday driving scenarios. Have never had a case where stopping ability is in question. The first set now have +30k mileage and appear to be wearing at a satisfactory rate.
My stock rotors (metallic pads) lasted 9 years and a track day. My ebay drilled/slotted rotors (ceramic pads)lasted 9 years and a handful of track days; they didn't crack the chamfer was just looking iffy. My latest set is from Amazon, powerstop branded drilled/slotted rotors (ceramic pads); have survived 1 track day, 1 light hdpe day and are on year 3. If you get drilled (any brand), you need to inspect the rotors more often.
I’d get the plain discs instead… drilled rotors tend to crack and slots will chew away your pads…!
