Brake discs POWER STOP or R1 Concepts

POWER STOP Brake discs

Damn, they must be for a truck or something, I literally just yesterday got my Powerstops rotors shipped to me from RA (bought a few days ago) with a couple other small things in the same order/box and it was only $20 for the shipping, that\u2019s crazy

Pros: cheap shipping cost

R1 Concepts Brake discs

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.

Pros: high quality, good price
Vehicle: BMW

Its been just under a week after installing R1 Concept's Geomet drilled/slotted rotors and ceramic pads, I am impressed. Extremely quiet and smooth ride but once they're hot, they get aggressive.

Pros: quiet and smooth ride
Cons: get aggressive when hot

I bought R1 Concepts front rotors for my Lexus IS250 at 85k miles. My car sits at 143k miles 5 years later and they have been the BEST rotors i have ever used. I chose their Geomet coating, and they are so rust resistant it is ridiculous. I have zero rust on the veins or hub of my brakes at all after all this time. I have used Powerstop rotors in the past on numerous vehicles, but I find the zinc coating will always rust after a few years. The R1 Concepts geomet coating is the best in my experience.

Pros: best rotors, rust resistant
Vehicle: Lexus
Mileage: 58000 km

Just bought the powerstop rotors and oem break pads and they worked great. Just make sure buy the squeak shims or they make noise.

Pros: worked great
Cons: make noise without shims

I have the powerstop z26 on my q, would recommend regular rotors unless u want that sporty look- they are prone to warping if not done right. Idk what i did wrong on mine, they work great but im 90% they warped within the first month

Pros: they work great
Cons: prone to warping
Vehicle: Infiniti Q
