Brake discs POWER STOP or R1 Concepts

R1 Concepts Brake discs

Ive got r1s on 3 of my cars and love them. Put out a decent amount of brake dust so either learn to live with it or youll be finger banging your wheels to keep them clean. Working on set #2 on my camry, lasted about 40k miles but i drive hard. Handled well thru the mountains

Pros: loved them, handled well
Cons: decent brake dust
Mileage: 64374 km

I was more than happy with my R1 Rotors at Sonoma 2 weeks ago. I felt a bit of pulsing when I got the brakes especially hot, but I never had any real fading.

Pros: happy with R1 Rotors
Cons: bit of pulsing
Vehicle: Ford Focus

POWER STOP Brake discs

I put the PowerStop rotors (slotted and drilled) and (ceramic) pads on our cars. They work just fine for our everyday driving scenarios. Have never had a case where stopping ability is in question. The first set now have +30k mileage and appear to be wearing at a satisfactory rate.

Pros: work fine, satisfactory wear
Mileage: 30000 km

Power stop z33 kit. Drilled and slotted rotors, carbon ceramic pads. VERY strong and progressive feeling. Inexpensive, and the kit was comprehensive. Would 100% buy them again.

Pros: strong feeling, inexpensive

I've been happy with PowerStop on RockAuto but make sure you get coated rotors cause they rust and look like dog shit if you don't.

Pros: happy with performance
Cons: rotors rust easily

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

I did the powerstop drilled slotted rotors thing on my Outback 3.6 which I’d run on the heavy side on family trips. The Gen 4 Outback’s are known to have poor brake performance and I thought it would be a smart upgrade for extra margin. In the end I wouldn’t recommend. More noise, faster pad wear, premature cracking around the drilled holes on the rotors, questionable performance upgrade.

Cons: more noise, faster pad wear
