I used PowerStop (cross drilled) when I did my brakes two years ago. They seem pretty good.
I have Power Stop brakes on both my Miata (Z26) and my 3 (Z17). Been on for about 45k km on the 3 and 20k km on the Miata. Absolutely fantastic brakes... The Miata gets driven hard and the brakes have been flawless and powerful. The 3 is a daily driver and the brakes are better than OEM, but not to the point where they'd change the character of the car.
I put Powerstop geomet brakes on my '15 over the winter and they have been solid. I've been pretty happy. They also don't look rusty at all so far.
I installed PowerStop Drilled & Slotted Rotors with PowerStop Pads on my front brake setup. VERY powerful brakes and never had any issues with dust, noise, etc.
I found PowerStop quite good for aftermarket pads. Their Z17 ceramic will be a reasonable OEM-like, low-dust, long-life alternative to your Elantra.
I just bought and installed the power stop z26 street warrior front and rear pads and rotors kit from rock auto for about 460 after taxes and shipping.
Installed smoothly, followed the steps and cleaned the bracket and whatever the rotor mounts to with a wire brush and brake cleaner. Having no issues whatsoever.
Almost 20k miles and still brakes super smooth.
For pads I'm going powerstop z26, good reviews on these and least dusty of the performance ceramic pad options from what people are saying. For rotors I'm going advics high carbon blanks. I've used slotted, drilled/dimples and rotors with both and I've always had cracking or warping issues over time. While they don't look as cool all I care is longevity for a daily driver and I don't planing to track my IS lol.
I switched the Brembo pads to Power Stop ceramic pads to reduce the black dust that sticks to the wheels and calipers. I didn\u2019t notice much difference in stopping power but I\u2019m sure I gave up a little bit.
I can wear through an entire set in one day in a gen 1 brz. They did manage to stop the car more or less okay, but they wear like butter.
