Reviews of POWER STOP parts For Business

My Sport M6 just hit 1000 miles and I was already so sick of brake dust on the rear wheels I installed a set of Power Stop ceramics. The job took less than an hour using OBD11 to put the calipers into service mode. I decided to do it early before the rotors experienced unparallel wear to the OEM semi-metallic pads.

Powerstop works better than Bosch in my opinion for brakes, but I would see if you could find regular rotors instead of the drilled & slotted ones. Drilled & slotted rotors are only worth paying for if you plan on abusing your cars brakes.

QuietCast pads are a solid choice. Centric is an OEM supplier and those are a fully coated rotor, so also a solid choice. If you want to spend a little extra, I’d go for Akebono pads. I ran their pad and rotor kit on my old Mazda 3 and they worked phenomenally but, ate through the pads pretty quick under normal city driving. No issues up until I sold the car.

I run the power stop drilled and slotted rotors on my vehicles I have never had an issue with them wearing what I would consider prematurely.

Best brakes I ever had were Powerstop plain rotors and Brembo pads

After lots of research I did Powerstops about 10K miles ago and absolutely love them!! I’ve done lots of brakes jobs on multiple different Toyota/Lexus trucks/SUV’s and normally OEM perform best, and I wouldn’t normally do drilled/slotted, but on these big heavy Sequoias they really perform so great…highly recommend!

My 2020 needed front pads at 24k, rear at 32k. I installed Powerstop kits instead of oem.

My 2018 Mazda6 GT needed rotors and brakes at 47,000KM so 28K miles checks out. I put on power stops.

This was my only complaint with my car when it was new. I can't wrap my head around how they thought that amount of brake dust was acceptable.

I swapped in Powerstop pads and have been happy ever since.

I did the powerstop drilled slotted rotors thing on my Outback 3.6 which I’d run on the heavy side on family trips. The Gen 4 Outback’s are known to have poor brake performance and I thought it would be a smart upgrade for extra margin. In the end I wouldn’t recommend. More noise, faster pad wear, premature cracking around the drilled holes on the rotors, questionable performance upgrade.
