All brake discs are now StopTech Black series one-piece, no detriment to performance vs the ATE stock two-piece, the upside is no going orange on the bells or edges like the stock discs do, pads are still PFC Z-Rated and fluid is ATE Type200, no obvious fade for fast road use.
For brake discs and pads Stoptech has worked well under both my Expedition and also another Ford vehicle.
I have used StopTech a few times with no issues.
I have the StopTech brand and have been perfect for me this season
I went with the stoptech rotors and brake pads, the brake pads i got from tire rack, and the rotors from buybrakes.com since I have factory slotted rotors
I really like the StopTech rotors I had, but they have gone up in price significantly over the years.
I swapped over from the oem Brembo pads and rotors to project mu pads and Stoptech rotors and it was a definitely worth the upgrade. I got the type PS pads they offer which has less dust than the oem pads, no noise and way better braking performance. Super easy to modulate and paired with 200tw tires your braking confidence goes through the roof and you can really late brake and trail brake easily.
I have Stop Tech slotted rotors on the front, still new in box for the rear. Same thing with stainless braided lines.
A few thousand miles later and I started to noticed a some shaking in the steering wheel when braking in the higher speeds (60-80mph). I called a few shops in my area that were highly recommend on both here Reddit, yelp, and the forums. Most pointed to warped rotors. One shop says to have the rotors machined and another says to have the completely replaced. What are your guy’s thoughts on having them machined?
Since I installed the StopTech slotted brake rotors on my 2013 Golf R last winter, every time I've driven in the rain, after cruising long enough such that the brakes get "cold," as soon as I mash on the brake pedal, there is no stopping power whatsoever. Once the brakes "heat up" the response and stopping power are as what I'd expect. On a dry day, this does not happen at all - the brakes are firm and the stopping response is exactly what I'd expect.
