Brake pads R1 Concepts or OEM Honda
Reviews
R1 concepts were an upgrade on my 2nd gen and got me through 4 years of abuse because the OEM ones would brake fade terribly. On my Camry they only lasted a year.
Pros: 4 years of abuse, no brake fade
Cons: only lasted a year on Camry
I put a set of r1 concepts pads and rotors on my wrx that I daily got them off Amazon for like $250 and came in like 2 days had them on for around 7500 miles and haven't had any issues.
Pros: no issues, fast shipping
Vehicle:
Subaru
Mileage: 7500 km
I have R1 concepts from Amazon, perfect for the car and stopping power.
Pros: perfect stopping power
Vehicle:
Kia
Two rotors=$100. Set of pads about $50. Couple wrenches, jack and jack stands.
Pros: easy to replace
Vehicle:
Honda
All 10th gen civics do this.. 10th gen accord, and we've noticed it on some 11th gen civics, too... There was an updated pad that's supposed to help with it..
Pros: updated pad helps
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
I havent had an issue with them in 2 years.
Pros: no issues
Vehicle:

I used the R1 concepts drilled and slotted kit with pads. Front and rear total was like 500 bucks. Did it myself. They work great.
Pros: work great, easy install
First set lasted 70k, the second set 50k as I was cheap and did the pad slap.
Pros: long lasting
Cons: premature wear
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
Mileage: 70000 km
2019 civic. Replaced front pads and rotors at 90k miles but only because road salt fucked up rotors which caused the pads to wear unevenly.
Cons: uneven wear, rotor damage
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
Mileage: 90000 km
Red doesn\u2019t have much dust. Same with green. I don\u2019t recommend the R1 concepts sport pads. They are very dusty. Almost worse than stock. Bite and feel is good though.
Pros: Bite and feel is good
Cons: very dusty
