Rating 5.0

I'm running Raybestos R300 slotted rotors and Powerstop Z23 pads on my 4/2 Brembos, from Rockauto. No complaints or squeals. Holds up really well with repeated heavy braking in the twistys too.

Pros: No squeals, holds up well

I always use Zimmerman coated rotors and Hawk HPS pads on my street Audis. Pads tend to last about 100,000 miles.

Pros: pads last 100,000 miles

Raybestos Brake discs

I replaced both front rotors and all side pins and dust boots with Raybestos stuff a few weeks ago. Easy job, cost $150ish instead of $800 or whatever dealer charged nonsense

It's a commuter and it stops fine

Pros: easy job, stops fine

I got Zimmerman blanks and Hawk HPS pads because I've used them on my Camaro before and was quite pleased with them. They are a great street pad.Massive reduction in brake dust, braking performance feels similar if not better than stock UNTIL they get some heat in them. Once they get hot, there is a huge increase in stopping power. This is not like a racing pad where it's shit until it gets hot, it goes from good to fantastic.However, high temp fluid is an absolute MUST.

Pros: reduced dust, increased stopping power
Cons: requires high temp fluid
Vehicle: Volkswagen

Raybestos R-300 for rotors and Akebono ProACT for pads. Almost no dust, no brake fade and the right price. Everyone recommends the PowerStop stuff, but they wear fast and are noisy.

Pros: no dust, no fade, good price
Cons: PowerStop wears fast, noisy

Zimmermann discs + Textar OEM pads

• After ~2 weeks → felt a clicking/grip when braking no squeak

• Recently brought it back again → they cleaned discs/pads applied lube and even replaced the pads

• Now 2 days later → clicking/grip is back + a new squeak at low speed in parking

Cons: clicking/grip when braking, new squeak
Vehicle: Audi Q7
