Brake pads POWER STOP or GALFER
I’ve had a full set of Powerstop Z23’s on my TSX Wagon for 4-yrs. The carbon ceramic pads have really held up well and have virtually no dust to cleanup. Rotor surface is generally rusted from water/dampness but clears immediately after driving. Center hat has zinc coating and is still bright silver color. Car driven year round in SW lower Michigan.
Powerstops are good quality. I used them on my 2017 Civic and they were solid. Strong braking, never any vibration, not bad on brake dust.
I love Powerstop. These are my go-to pads. Their PST89 track pads were dusty but god damn they worked so well and never overheated.
I use this brand of rotors and pads on my Ridgeline and CRV. No complaints, works well.
I have those pads, they’re good. Ditch the rotors, they’ll make the pads wear faster. I went with Brembo blanks.
They work fine, although I’d probably go with plain rotors to increase pad life. The pads are fairly dusty leave some stubborn yellow-brown dust on your wheels.
I’ve used these. They work just fine. Price is good.
I have this set on my 19 accord going on a year and half around 25k miles zero issues with them.
My car needs brakes really bad. I had the Front pads replaced at about 60k miles, and it cost me $400 (From a local shop, parts had to be ordered direct from VW). The rears needed replaced then, but I couldn't afford it and just now have the extra cash to do them and figure I will do all 4 brakes at the same time. Also decided to buy parts online because it seems to be MUCH cheaper (Only place I can find local stocking the correct parts is VW, and they are pretty pricey of course). I figured Amazon would be the first place to look (Because I shop there for everything, and have Prime so I get free shipping on everything). Found these, which seem like a good fit: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001D27YQC/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER (Plus, they are 10% off.) The problem is, I cannot find rear brake pads at a similar price, anywhere I look. I figured Power Stop would have a similar pair for the back, but I cannot find them on Amazon (They have such a crappy search function for auto parts). I have tried searching various other sites that carry the above linked pads (Summit, Jegs, THmotorsports) but all of them either don't show rear pads, or their site doesn't search properly. I even tried the Power Stop website to find a parts number but when you 'select your car' the only VW option is Passat. It's driving me crazy. Anyone have an idea of either the parts number for the rear power stop brakes, OR a link to some good similarly priced rears (or front and rears)??? I am planning to get these rotors: http://thmotorsports.com/ebc_brakes...c_brakes/ebc_brake_rotors_upr_premium_replacement_rotors/upr1772/i-1806853.aspx Not looking for anything fancy or top of the line. Car is a daily driver and has been retired from heavy driving ever since it hit 80k miles. Now it just gets me to and from work, and the occasional out of town trip on the weekends. Car is a 2013 VW Jetta S (2.0 4cyl, Non-turbo)
I put a set of power stops on the wife’s SUV the weekend before we got married. They lasted maybe 12,000 miles? Maybe less? They warped and started chattering something awful. Wound up doing rotors, pads and calipers on all four wheels: Raybestos coated rotors and heavy duty pads, haven’t had a problem since.
