Brake pads R1 Concepts or Bendix
Reviews
Got them on. Lasted for a good amount. 20k miles. Weekend track slowing from 160mph+ don’t use ceramic pads something softer would be better
Pros: lasted for a good amount
Cons: ceramic pads not good
Mileage: 32186 km
I have R1 on now all around and no issues since.
Pros: no issues
Running the R1 concept with ceramic pads now and have no issues. They bite a lot better then the stock setup I had on it before.
Pros: better bite, no issues
Vehicle:
Infiniti Q50
I use bendix on my truck and love it. I figure if they make good pads for the big rigs I work on, why not run them on my truck?
Pros: love it, reliable
I see no one mentioning bendix, they’re the only brand I’ve run on my 2010 Holden Colorado and work exceptionally well
Pros: work exceptionally well
I bought the r1 concept rotors+brake pads. They look great and have lasted for about a year no issue at all. Good quality
Pros: good quality, lasted a year
I put Bendix pads and rotors frt n back on mine a year ago.
Doing a good job, we tow and load up with firewood alot.
Nice even wear on everything. Smooth stops.
Pros: Nice even wear, smooth stops
I've had mine for like 60k miles. 87k ish on the clock. Just changed everything. Yearly inspection and the shop rejected it for brakes. Brake installer said the weren't that bad. I bought an R1 Concepts kit. Front and rear rotors plus pads all around. $220 shipped on Walmart+ (also found on Amazon or Rock Auto). The shop had a brakes special: $160 installed for new pads. Since I had the parts and rotors take like 30 seconds to swap out, they charged me for two brake installs at $150 each. So all in installed was like $550 after taxes.For reference: the shop that rejected it quoted something like $500 for the front and $500 for the rear. And I don't think it was all new everything.
Cons: rejected for brakes
Vehicle:
Honda Accord
Mileage: 87000 km
The problem with Bendix pads is that they eat away the rotors too fast.
Cons: eats rotors too fast
I had bendix on my cars before, the gen CT and metal king has too much metal components, hence its noisy and scratches the rotors.
Cons: noisy, scratches rotors
