Brake pads ATE or POWER STOP

I have used POWERSTOP Brake pads and rotors with good results. Available on Amazon.

For the price and quality I like PowerStop pads and rotors. Their carbon cermic pads and I opt for the drilled and slotted rotors. Had them on my truck and towed 10,000lbs. Have them on my wife's CX5.

I've been very happy with them on the street. I hardly ever notice dust. When it's cold they sometimes squeak getting out of the driveway, but never more.

I’m loving my powers too ceramic pads… the reduction in break dust is awesome

I’m happy with my PowerStops

For rotors just get fully coated blanks on RockAuto. For pads, I’ve had really good results with the PowerStop Z23 pads. Very affordable, zero brake dust, and they’ll hold up to everything except an actual track day. I’ve also had Redstuff pads on my previous car, and feel like these are equivalent.

I just put some ATE pads on the rear. High quality for only $30.

I originally installed the powerstops in 2018 they have lasted around 93k miles.

Brakes feel fine when driving, but after they cool and I go out again, the pedal feels spongey. A few hard stabs and it returns to normal, until I come in and let it cool. No fade while driving, and pads survived despite having been on the car for over 2 years of road use, although they need replacing now really.

I have them and haven't seen any improvement in braking. They're also very noisy.
