Reviews of Raybestos parts For Business

I have Raybestos AT's(96087) on my front, and Hawk HPS HB418F.646 pads. Don't think Hawk makes the HPS pads anymore though. I'm at about 2.5 years on mine, got 4 years out of the last set, after putting up with the OEM's for 4.5 years. Still on the factory rear drums.

Far better than OEM.

So I don't work for Raybestos but I do install a ton of them. Those EHT are really good for normal vehicles. The price is right, dust is low, pedal feel is great, friction is about on par with OEM and in some cases better. They will survive about 10-15 medium effort stops, and about 3-5 Hard ABS stops. I wouldn't put them in anything bigger than a 7-Seater V6 Crossover, and the weight of those is on the limit of what the pads can do, but over all very good.

I’m running Raybestos rotors (good warranty and price) with Stoptech Sport pads and I like the brakes quite a bit.

The brakes I got from them are the Raybestos Element3 pads and rotors. Working great so far!

I will move to Raybestos EHT or PowerStop Z23 or Z26 when its time. Wagner has Thermoquiets for those with ear problems.

I priced out parts at $201 + S&H for premium raybestos rotors and pads at all 4 corners for a 2012 outback 2.5l on rockauto. Will be better than new for less than half the price.

I'd just buy any of the old line good quality aftermarket that are aiming at OEM. Raybestos, Bendix, Wagner. Or just buy BMW OEM.

AC Delco for electronics. Moog for suspension. Raybestos for brakes.

I must clarify that the calipers are Raybestos Professional Grade units FRC3167 and FRC3168 (L and R rears). Got them at rockauto.com, and it doesnt say if they're rebuilt, but I'm sure they are

So I mentioned to Mike at GiroDisc (who is great btw) that I was in the market for pads, and he recommended Raybestos ST43s, which get great reviews. So I went with them, but two events ago they put deposits on the rotors so bad the car shook like mad after a few laps. I still had the HT-10s with me, so I swapped them, they wiped the deposits off and I was back in business for the day.
