Raybestos Element 3. They last a while and bite pretty well when braking hard
Pretty happy with them so far.
bosch quiet cast pads and rotors. changed my life
I purchased some DBA Sport Rotors from Australia which came with, I'm pretty sure Bosch brake pads which were brilliant!
I found Raybestos Element 3 pads and rotors were great on my 2011. The pads have a higher friction rating than the OE pads but still low dust and great feel and braking. Terrific value. The rotors are nice as well.
Am avut si eu la un golf 4 tot bosch.. scartaiau la viteza redusa.. cand eram aproape sa opresc.
Le-am schimbat si am pus ate. Din prima zi au mers brici fara nici un scartait.
I ended up picking up Bosch ceramics for the rear + new aftermarket rotors since the stock ones had 1 mm left to min thickness. Have tried not to brake too hard since install couple days ago, but had to a couple times anyway (toronto highway traffic) braking felt just as good as the stock pads.
Ceramic. No dust ????
Just take a little bit longer to warm up to bite... ????
I would recommend Raybestos ST43s but they’re going to be the same price and availability is scarce.
I had this problem after working on a friend's Infiniti FX35 and also using Bosch ceramic brake pads.
The problem for me was that Bosch pads have a different inside and outside pad for the rears for that vehicle. I've used Bosch pads before and never encountered this.
The pads were not marked and nothing on the box indicated there were different sides so I didn't notice. But they have protruding nubs on the backing that cause the caliper to not sit properly and increase their thickness, causing constant drag on the rotors.
