I put the Power Stop branded drilled/slotted rotors and Akebono ProAct pads on my 8th gen front and back. Brake performance definitely improved although the ceramics are definitely noisier than oem. Overall for the price id recommend it.

Pros: improved braking
Cons: noisy pads

POWER STOP Brake discs

I bought powerstop drilled and slotted rotors from rock auto back in 2022. 3 years later they weren't even halfway through the pads. I paid $685 for carbon ceramic pads + rotors and accessories. Yes, slightly more dust but I didn't notice any significant wear on the rotors.

Pros: long lasting, low wear
Cons: more dust

My stock rotors (metallic pads) lasted 9 years and a track day. My ebay drilled/slotted rotors (ceramic pads)lasted 9 years and a handful of track days; they didn't crack the chamfer was just looking iffy. My latest set is from Amazon, powerstop branded drilled/slotted rotors (ceramic pads); have survived 1 track day, 1 light hdpe day and are on year 3. If you get drilled (any brand), you need to inspect the rotors more often.

Cons: iffy chamfer, needs frequent inspection
Vehicle: BMW

Parts quality has gone straight to hell since the start of the pandemic. Especially brake rotors. I'm tired of looking like a jackass to customers when stuff from trusted brands fails in a couple weeks. The only consistently decent rotors I'm finding are, of all the places, freaking Power Stop coated rotors from Rock Auto. I Never have trouble with those.

Pros: consistently decent, no trouble
Cons: fails in weeks, poor quality
