Put in some aftermarket front brake pads too.
Every single time I install non OEM brakes on my Subaru they warp within a year, my Subaru brakes always last me 3+years. I have replaced about a dozen brake kits in my driveways. The Subaru brakes are the best.
I had aftermarket front brakes installed by a local mechanic for around $300. They ended up squeaking constantly and just didn’t feel right. I eventually had them redone with genuine Honda brakes at the dealership — it cost me $575, but the difference was night and day. No noise, smooth feel, and it came with a 12-month warranty.
2019 Honda Civic LX 2.0 bought brand new and has 107,000 miles on it with original brakes. Rotors and pads. Not squeaking yet. Excellent!
We have a 2019 Crosstrek Limited with Eyesight and no sunroof that my fianc\u00e9 bought new and now has ~78k miles on it. Zero mechanical issues, did the brakes at around 75k miles, and did have the head unit die earlier this year, which was not fun (Subaru of America thankfully warrantied the unit after reaching out to them). Interior wears pretty well considering she doesn't take care of the car much and she often takes our 2 large dogs around in it. For the money, I think they are hard to beat, even with the CVT.
These new ceremic pads can last pretty long. My Honda has almost 70k miles and still plenty pads left.
I had rears replaced at 40k. At 60k now. I’ve always had a rumbling sound and vibration when breaking from 60-55 mph (around 57) since 40k.
Reacquainting with traditional brakes felt strange. Kept releasing the accelerator, expecting it to brake. Takes getting used to.
They are the worst deal. They charge like what $93 now for an oil change? I can get a case of 12 quarts for like $24. And do it my self. I can’t even remember what they tried to quote me for a brake job. I got brakes and rotors for under $200.
I have an old groupe A Subaru homologation car. It’s on its 6th engine which is also currently blown. There are NO MORE ENGINES. NONE. ZERO. NADA. NOTHING. So now I have to buy a crashed wrx and swap the whole drivetrain over if I want the car to move under its own power. My frs just……… I mean…… 250 in brake pads and fluid, and 500 bucks in tires. Oh and a 90$ oil change before and after.
