Brake discs ATE or POWER STOP

I did my fronts and have posted the details recently if you search. Got my rotors/pads from Rockauto - $210 delivered. Yes, not a lot of options for the front for whatever reason. I got Powerstop slotted/drilled rotors and Centric Posi-quiet ceramic pads. V. easy job - about an hour and a half total taking my time. Amazing results compared to my uneven/\"warped\" stockers. My issue was pulsing slowing from highway speeds.

I used the EVOLUTION GEOMET COATED ROTOR BRAKE KIT from PowerStop on my Gen 1. Worked great, lasted long, lot less brake dust.

I'm running Powerstop drilled and slotted rotors (stock diameter) and their ceramic pads both front and rears and they perform great. I dont track my car but for street use is perfectly fine. The pads have very little brake dust and I don't hear any noise from them either and pedal feel is a bit better than stock to me but just barely. I've had these on since last year without any problems. I also have this brand on my other vehicles..specifically my '99 Subaru 2.5rs...and never had any issues with the brakes at all and it's been 10 yrs. So I'm hoping to get the same results with my R.

FWIW: I replaced the rotors (ATE), pads (Akebono), and brake fluid (Pentosin) last year, which cost me $291 and was not difficult at all.

I run PowerStop crossdrilled/slotted anti rust on my Infiniti and my truck. I've used them for a few years and like the braking on them. Have had no issues over 30000 combined miles with the heavy load on the truck and spirited drive of my car. I've also installed the PowerStop OEM grade pads and rotors on some friends cars and they have been very pleased. I also use the PowerStop pads with these setups.

I replaced mine two years ago, both rotors and pads front and rear, with VW parts purchased from VWpartsvortex. As I recall, they were not Brembo, probably ATE. I spent a total of $718 on the set, which seemed reasonable considering the rotor size and how long they last. So far, the new ones are performing very well. As an aside, a few years ago I replaced the rotors with Brembos on a Subaru and was disappointed: the front ones warped almost immediately. The bottom line, I'm afraid, is that it is no longer enough to rely on the brand, especially if sourced on the secondary market. At least with "VW" marked parts the reputation of the vehicle manufacturer is on the line, though even that may not be enough to ensure high quality.

I'll add that I have used ATE rotors with this coating before on the car before my current daily driver and have had good results here in the rust belt. That's why I bought from them again 4,000 miles ago for new fronts on my current car. As with anything, your mileage may vary. I'm sure one could do much worse or much better for daily driver front brake rotors.

ATE orbital slotted rotors are the best I've used so far for the price.

get aome ATE powerslot rotors, and some hawk hp or HPS or HP+ pads, which ever u think will work...and you'll have stopping power..big time.

I already have the ATE Premium One rotors and Hawk pads on my 1982 Caddy. They don't have the initial bite but are good once they heat up, but still require adequate pedal pressure to ensure an emergency stop. The ATE Premium One rotors are great especially in the rain because they absolutely have that initial bite.
