Brake discs STOPTECH or Raybestos
I went with the Raybestos Element 3. Rotors are coated for rust protection, pads are ceramic. Comes out to just under $100 including shipping.
Pros: rust protection, low cost
Vehicle:
Honda Accord
Raybestos R-300 for rotors and Akebono ProACT for pads. Almost no dust, no brake fade and the right price. Everyone recommends the PowerStop stuff, but they wear fast and are noisy.
Pros: no dust, no fade, good price
Cons: PowerStop wears fast, noisy
Blank discs work just fine, I've been using raybestos and they've been pretty good so far
Pros: pretty good
I'm running some Raybestos R300 rotors from Rockauto no issues.
Pros: no issues
Vehicle:
Subaru
Anyways based off your post history looks like you’re in Sauga, so you can probably go to Parts Avatar. Place an online order and drive over there to pick it up at their warehouse.
The Budget Plan:
Rotors - Raybestos Element 3 980952FZN
Pros: Budget plan
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
Part number: 980952FZN
I’m getting slotted stop tech rotors for my 09 Corolla XRS. Gonna hit some back roads, I’m a very aggressive driver and and very hard on my breaks, also want to do hard backroad driving, so I will benefit from the slotted rotors.
Pros: benefit from slotted rotors
Vehicle:
Toyota Corolla
Went with stop tech two piece slotted rotors and EBC yellow pads when I got my 2015 DSG a few years ago. No complaints but there are better pads out there than EBC. First 3-5k miles the yellows squeaked at a 6/10 level probably.
Pros: no complaints, good rotors
Cons: pads squeak initially
Mileage: 3000 km
Raybestos is a good brand, go for it.
Pros: good brand, reliable
The previous owner had a brand new set of front and rear pads and rotors that came with the car when I bought it. Raybestos brand, assuming he bought them off Rockauto. Anyways, front went together no problem but the rear calipers needed pressed in to fit new the pads.
Pros: front went together no problem
Cons: rear calipers needed pressed
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
I gave rock auto a shot and got raybestos rotors from there and they did not fit my 93 Accord coupe. I definitely didnt order the wrong ones either, they 100 percent shouldve fit but they didnt.
Cons: did not fit
Vehicle:
Honda Accord
