I was using Raybestos ST43s and they had phenomenal friction.
Replaced my front and rear brakes about a year ago with Raybestos (ceramic) and have been happy with it. Stopping power has been great. Didn't realize how bad my brakes were until I put these new ones in.
You got this. Just did the brakes on my wagon myself for the first time and it was breeze. Rock auto had a really good deal on raybestos brakes when I did mine. Worked amazing
I’ve had Powerstop Z36 Impression: just average
Hawk LTS. Impression: very good
Raybestos Element 3. Impression: similar to OEM
Now I run Raybestos “Truck & Medium Duty” front & rear. They’re very good: low dust, low noise, good performance & pedal feel.
I always recommend the Raybestos Element3 EHT pads and rotors. We use them at work and have very little comebacks. Low noise, low dust, great pedal feel.
I usually get aftermarket Raybestos pads if/when available.
I can't recommend the 2nd gen cars enough. I bought my 958 on a whim because dieselgate deal and ended up absolutely falling in love with it. As far as costs, surprisingly in my case, it was "nothing is cheaper than an expensive Porsche." YMMV, getting dieselgate pricing and selling during a boom obviously helped, but I just sold it on Monday after 2.5 yrs, having it from 60k-90k, and trade-in (towards another Cayenne) was more than I had paid. In terms of maintenance, only things not on the schedule were brakes once and the winter tires once, wipers twice, and fixed one broken e-brake and one broken brake bleeder.
They're great pads, and when you've fried them you'll get a new set under FCP Euro's lifetime warranty.
Cracks in front brake pads, approx 15k & 2 years on them. Raybestos Element3 Hybrid Tech.
Just replaced rear brakes on my ‘15 rogue with Raybestos E3 pads. I really had to force the pad into the new hardware clips. I did a quick google search and his seems to be an issue with E3 brake hardware. The original brake pads were also really tough to remove before I put the new ones in.
