Brake discs ATE or R1 Concepts
R1 concepts slotted drilled rotors and pads along with some GoSpeed traction drop springs and alignment.
I’ve ran the R1 concepts D/S with OE Pads, steel lines, MOTUL 660 fluid. I’ve got them pretty hot on mountain road runs many times, no issues.
I just installed front axle drilled and slotted rotors, and new pads, all from R1 Concepts, and total cost shipped (Amazon) was $56. Tax, delivery, shims, everything but silicone grease.
looks like ate power rotor (at least ones i had with "flower" shape were ate power). grewt rotors, a bit noisy on braking, but when flower is gone, rotor is for trash also... btw pad is upside down
I haven’t seen those ATE rotors in awhile. I used them and liked them.
Got a 2017 lancer and did the R1 concepts. Good results after only the first two weeks. Mind you! I had two seized calipers in the back and had to replace those as well. What is stated about drilled rotors is true about the cracking if you’re using them aggressively, I bought these specific ones because I read they have the better rating out of most and since I’m using them in the winter I’m not concerned with them getting too hot to crack (please correct me if my logic is not correct) but I assumed that since the vehicle was primarily being used for cold weather it would be best to go with a more reputable brand for safe stopping power.
Got the R1 concepts for the rotors and pads. Impressed by the braking power
Installed new r1 concepts drilled and slotted rotors. After break-in, I noticed a clicking sound from both front rotors, resembling a wheel of fortune. The sound happens when a pad is in. The r1 concepts rotors are dimple instead of drilled all the way through, unlike my previous Power Stop rotors. Brakes feel great otherwise, but this pesky clicking noise when I have windows down will drive me nuts. I may go back to Power Stop.
I've had them on my wife's car for 2 years. Haven't had any problems other than the rust
I personally have had a bad experience with r1 brakes two different times on two different cars. Not saying they're bad just won't buy again. Rotors warped almost immediately both times. New pads and rotors on both cars.
