vs
Brake pads OEM Nissan or Centric
Reviews
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)
Pros: best bang for buck
Cons: comebacks
Vehicle:
Land Rover Range Rover Sport
Centric Premium is my preferred brand, I have used them for years and they don’t warp.
Pros: reliable, long lasting
Been running “Centric Posi Quiet Ceramic Brake Pads” since 2020 and nearly zero dust.
Pros: 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
Pros: better than chain store offerings
I bought that centric kit for my 18 Mazda 3 last year, no issues.
Pros: no issues
Vehicle:
Mazda 3
Centric Posi Quiet Ceramics & 120 Series rotors from Tire Rack. Though not a CX5, my Mazda6 is running at 60k miles on this set.
Pros: long lasting, quiet
Vehicle:
Mazda 6
Mileage: 60000 km
Zimmerman Cross drilled rotors from FCP Euro with Centric posi quiet ceramic pads. So much less brake dust with these pads compared to stock.
Pros: less brake dust
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.
Pros: loved the brakes
Cons: lack of braking dangerous
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf

Pros: Great car in winters
Cons: 3rd set of breaks
Vehicle:
Nissan
Mileage: 98000 km
I have a Nissan Pathfinder 2022 and have had to replace brakes twice in 2 years.
Cons: brakes replaced twice
Vehicle:
