Bought my 2018 Stinger GT new - within a few months my steering would shake like it had warped rotors - and it wasnt always the case - it would be ok at times, then come back. I use Auto Hold a lot - and it seems that feature causes the shaking in the steering wheel the more I used it. I did talk with Kia about it and they dismissed it and said it was fine - after being sick and tired of the shaking I went and bought new rotors and pads from R1 Concepts and havent looked back - no issues at all since I installed them and I use Auto Hold every single day.

Pros: no issues since install
Cons: steering wheel shake
Vehicle: Kia

I went with normal "street" powerstop rotors on the front and I think matching ceramic pads. No issues at all brakes as it should.

Pros: no issues at all
Mileage: 70000 km

My '15 has 88k mi, and I think I'm on my third set of rotors. Since the car is out of warranty now, I got a set of slotted rotors and matching pads from AutoZone or PepBoys for $350. They don't squeak when wet, and don't accumulate the rust or dirt the factory rotors did. My braking is greatly increased too.

Pros: increased braking, no rust
Cons: accumulated dirt
Mileage: 88000 km
Part number: K6762

I would advise from purchasing Power Stop drilled and slotted rotors and pads. Purchased and installed them. They told me the upgraded rotors and pads would reduce the brake fade I experience from driving a 1999 4Runner with a 3 inch Lift and 32s in the mountains. Initially I saw an increase in stopping power and endurance. Now, 6 months later, I have been experiencing horrible vibrations while braking and at highway speeds. I replaced my pads which were already worn out. Still experienced horrible vibrations. Today I replaced the rotors and have finally been able to brake smoothly and safely. The Power Stop pads wore out in 6 months and the rotors got warped.

Pros: increased stopping power initially
Cons: horrible vibrations, warped rotors, pads wore quickly
