Brake discs STOPTECH or Raybestos
I currently use StopTech Slotted rotors with Hawk Ceramic Pads and they work great for a daily driver. Initial bite isn't as good as Hawk HPS but the brake dust is low compared to stock pads and HPS.
Pros: work great daily driver
Cons: initial bite not good
I’m running Raybestos rotors (good warranty and price) with Stoptech Sport pads and I like the brakes quite a bit.
Pros: good warranty and price
I have the non cryo treated stoptech slotted rotors, they're a great affordable option. I run hawk HPS pads. You have them yourself so you know they're also a great affordable option.
Pros: great affordable option
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
I had StopTech sport slotted cryo-treated rotors on the front and Hawk HPS pads all around. Stopped me every time. Lack of fade coming off the freeway was amazballs. Never warped.
Pros: excellent stopping power, no fade
I got the brake pad light at 51K. I knew I'd need new pads and rotors all around. I look at this as a chance to upgrade components at the same time. Adding Giro disk two piece rotors up front, stoptech slotted in the in rear, upgraded lines, better pads etc.
Pros: upgrade components
Mileage: 51000 km
I just (like Friday) got slotted StopTechs for the front. I got Hawk pads and can confirm they stop the Fiesta in a timely manner. Outside of the silly blow-off valve, the only modifications I have done have been StopTech rotors front and rear.
Pros: timely stopping
Vehicle:
Ford Fiesta
Personally I really like the StopTech Slotted rotors. The slots do nothing to help braking performance but they do help keep the face of the pads flat.
Pros: keep pads flat
Cons: slots don't improve braking
I've run them on three cars. You won't regret them. I'm actually running the 336mm rotors on my c30 right now with a custom caliper setup. Been like that for 2 years with no complaints, and in total I've been running stoptech rotors for 8 years.
Pros: long lasting, no complaints
I priced out parts at $201 + S&H for premium raybestos rotors and pads at all 4 corners for a 2012 outback 2.5l on rockauto. Will be better than new for less than half the price.
Pros: better than new
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
i bought stoptech slotted rotors and stoptech performance street pads for my wife's Odyssey as a way to gauge if they were great for daily use compared to just regular rotors and upgraded pads. I can say that there is a huge difference in preventing fade and stopping power just from that kit alone
Pros: preventing fade, stopping power
Vehicle:
Honda Odyssey
