Brake discs Bosch or R1 Concepts
Bosh quietcast never gave me any issue for my HRV.
Cheap ones used in a lot of shop lately for both rotors and pads are Bosch, and they hold up pretty well. I put a full set on my Suburban a couple years ago and have no complaints.
Again aftermarket will might be around $100 each for Bosch.
I just changed my rotors and pads myself on my 23 mazda 3, cost me $224 for 4 Bosch rotors and all new Bosch pads.
Get raybestos, powerstop, Bosch or akebono brakes. Akebono pads and Bosch Quietcast rotors are the best around
Rotors: Bosch
I have used rotors from R1 Concepts for over 15 years, on vehicles ranging from a Dodge Caravan, Chevy Trailblazer, to multiple BMWs and have never had an issue. They’re high quality and good price and I highly recommend them.
This time I bought some coated Bosch rotors and I look forward to seeing how they look in the spring.
R1 concepts are fine not the best.
Why after changing pads, greasing pins, new rotors, my brakes are still squeaking going through town and down the highway? The right side was noticeably more worn when I started the job, and that’s the one that’s squeaking. I put the new chrome inserts in the bracket too. OEM ac Delco pads and new Bosch quiet cast rotors. Used c clamp to push pistons back in. 2016 Yukon Denali
