Brake pads DBA or Tesla
I have these exact pads. HUGE improvement.
Pros: huge improvement
I have the T2s and the DBA SP Street Performance Brake Pads, the green ones, on 4 corners along with SS brake lines. They have been rock solid since sept of 2022 over 50k miles. Hardly any brake dust compared to Stoptech street semi metallic. They are a great all-round setup, Street and canyons.
Pros: rock solid, little brake dust
Mileage: 50000 km
I'm running DBA Street Performance pads. Low dust and performance seems fine. I'd buy again.
Pros: low dust, fine performance
With regenerative braking, you almost never need to replace brake pads.
Pros: regenerative braking
I've got DBA street performance pads and slotted rotors on my 2018 Outback. Not sure what their availability may be to you, but they carry a good reputation down under.
Pros: good reputation
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
Coming from stoptech sports. I got dba sport sp. ceramic pads. Same feel but no dust!
Pros: same feel, no dust
The BIG difference is the brakes. In normal driving you're using one pedal driving, and this means two things. Firstly you're hardly ever using the actual brakes, almost all your braking in normal driving is through regen. Secondly because the regen braking is quite powerful, the actual physical brakes are relatively small. The brakes are great until they aren't, and they aren't great when you really need them.
Pros: great until normal driving
Cons: poor braking, heavy squidgy
I just had to do brakes and ball joints on my 2016 Model S (some rough roads, and calipers were seizing from winter corrosion, I live in the state of Maine, US). 100K miles, 160Kkm (160Mm?).
Pros: windshield spritzer
Cons: calipers were seizing
Mileage: 160000 km
I installed rear DBA ceramic pads and rear TRW ceramic discs last weekend and after a week I’m seeing these aggressive scratch channels circled in red. I do hear a constant scraping while driving without braking.
Cons: constant scraping while driving
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Got a 60k MYLR, my pads and rotors seem fine but I keep getting this super loud squeal sound when I brake.
Cons: loud squealing
Mileage: 60000 km
