Brake discs Centric or R1 Concepts
I’ve ran r1 concepts drilled and slotted rotors for like 3 years now with stoptech pads and never felt the need to upgrade higher than that for just dailying/spirited driving
I run r1 concept rotors with ebc red stuff pads and they work great for me
I installed R1 Concepts slotted on my 13 R/T years ago. They are better than the brakes that came from the factory.
I went with R1 concepts. Really good brake rotors and brake pads so far. I’ve had their regular ones and just switched to drilled and slotted. I’ve noticed an improvement in braking after driving for a while as the brakes don’t heat up as much. But it depends on your driving style. R1 concepts kits also come with hardware if you select it which would help because the oem hardware get warn out after a while.
I have used R1 concepts geomet drilled/slotted rotors twice. The pads were pretty dusty but worked well.
I use Centric rotors/drums and Akebono shoes/pads from RockAuto. They work fine, despite FUD on OEM for shoes.
I just did mine brakes & rotors on my 2019 1.5 and all parts from R1 Concepts, drilled & slotted. Feel so smooth!
I'd also recommend centric for the rotors.
I’ve used R1 rotors for over 15 years on everything from a Dodge minivan to all three of my BMW’s. I have not ever had one issue and will continue to buy them for years to come.
I had the Centric rotors for both the front and rears. I'm replacing the rears Cemtrics next week which have 48k km on them with Raybestos Element 3s because they are highly recommended here and I wanted to try something different. I have a feeling my rear centric rotors have been ruined by the akebono pads which I think have gone down to the metal and are creating a groove in the rotor. Sad that this is all happening at only 48k km.
