Yup. Many times. I use centric/raybestos on my race miata and on my dailies. I have been using the powerstop race pads too.
If my customers choose aftermarket, I always get
380mm centric high carbon rotors
Centric posi-quiet ceramic brakes.
The centric rotors are the absolute best bang for your buck.
I find paid results in comebacks, and oddly enough I get a lot of comebacks when I use brembo brake pads and rotors (they are 100% a different formulation than the land rover brembo OEM spec)
Centric Premium is my preferred brand, I have used them for years and they don’t warp.
Been running “Centric Posi Quiet Ceramic Brake Pads” since 2020 and nearly zero dust.
Get a set of Centric PQ (posi-quiet) pads and rotors. Way better than any of the big chain brick and mortar store offerings for less $ too
I bought that centric kit for my 18 Mazda 3 last year, no issues.
Centric Posi-Quiet Ceramic Pads + Centric Premium Rotors
• Pros: Affordable, reliable, low dust
• Cons: Not a performance upgrade, but solid for daily driving
The MK7 R community seems to like Centric Posi-Quiet Ceramic Though I had a love-hate relationship on them. Centric claims no bedding was necessary... so, I listened to them and found the lack of braking dangerous. Then, one late night, on an empty highway, I bedded them in with about 10, 70-5 mph medium to hard slow downs, got the rotors heated up and brake pads smelling... then drove on the highway for about half hour, then turned around and went home and let the brakes completely cool. Then I loved the brakes.
Chevrolet. One of the issues the car had was when it would rain. The brakes wouldn't always work.
My 2025 RS AWD has been having squealing brakes since 1,000 miles at low speed. It has 3,500 on it now and it's annoying.
