I've had my 2013, 89,000 miles, which isn't *that* old but still, and have had zero mechanical problems. Only maintenance and expected repairs like brake pads or air filters.
I bought the r1 concept rotors+brake pads. They look great and have lasted for about a year no issue at all. Good quality
I have R1 Concepts on my daily R, I was fortunate to get them when they were on sale through their e-bay store. They work very well on a daily and the brake dust is very low. I really like them.
I was also looking at these. The price looks great!
I switched over to R1 Concepts rotors and ceramic pads and haven't had to clean brake dust since ????????
Toyota hybrids have no starter, no belts, no alternator to wear out and the brake pads and disks last around 100,000 miles due to little use
Did my own with R1 Concepts E-Line pads and rotors. Bought my own parts kit seperate since they don't include them like some brands do. After 40k miles on them, I'm still going strong and will go another 20k before I evaluate their shape. I have slotted and drilled rotors, and you can visibly see the wear on the rotors, the pads are still going strong. As for stopping power I'd say it's average or OEM. No rust after 2 years on them thanks to the coating on the rotors. The surface does rust lightly after a rain storm, but they're clean after driving and braking.
I did use r1concepts house brand ceramic brake pads in my most recent brake change and I like them overall. I do not track my vehicle but maybe some spirited driving here and there
New rotors and pads without breaking in at all, just normal driving as soon as changed. Pads lasted 30.000km ish, while rotors wrapped at about 40.000km ish (pads replaced at 30k with same R1 concepts). Brake feel and performance was OK, but much worse than when broken in. Light squeal at about 15.000km and onwards. New rotors and pads following break in procedure, 10 stops from 90km/h (55mph aprox), never coming to a complete stop, then driving 30 minutes never coming to a complete stop, rolling to a stop on neutral and waiting another 30 minutes. Pads lasted about 40.000km ish, rotors lasted 80.000km ish, pads replaced at 40.000km with same R1 concepts ceramic.
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.
