Brake discs Centric or Raybestos

Raybestos Element 3 pads and rotors. Inexpensive, maintains factory brake feel and won't rust out.

Track pads and the basic Centric rotors. Get the Boomba air deflectors that mount on the control arms and remove your dust shields.

I ran G-LOC pads with Castrol SRF with this setup and had my rotors glowing with minimal fade at Gingerman.

Cheap Centric blank rotors, Castrol SRF fluid, and G-LOC track pads will change your mind on brake performance. For dailying, I run Stoptech Sport pads on Centric blank rotors, still with SRF.

I went with Raybestos Element 3 rotors and pads. I live in New England so plenty of salt. Getting into my 2nd winter on them and they still look new.

I had the same issue with my 2017 SEL-P - went with Centric high carbon rotors and akebono pads. No more issues. The factory pads and rotors are crap. Passengers think I can't modulate brakes in the parking lot as it stops abruptly.

Those should be a very good combo. I ran Centric rotors on my 2012 Gen2 with good results.

On the side/personal vehicles? Raybestos coated rotors with OEM pads or Wagner OEX pads every time. Consistent quality, smooth strong braking and low dust.

Old shop I worked at swore by centric posi quiets. They bedded in good even when the customer didn't want rotors

I did use a set of Centric rotors on one of the German cars, so far so good.

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.
