bosch quiet cast pads and rotors. changed my life
Been running Powerstop for the last 4 years…have been solid for me, no issues.
I have touch of squealing when I first leave my driveway in the morning. I have about 20 miles in them so far (changed last week). Performance is great no complaints.
Dust is gone.
Dust decrease was excellent and I had a smidge of squealing at very low speed initially, but it’s resolved after a few weeks.
The OEM pads do not dust like some aftermarket do. I replaced my fronts with OEM, and a couple years later replaced the back with Powerstop from RockAuto - the front dusts significantly less.
I purchased some DBA Sport Rotors from Australia which came with, I'm pretty sure Bosch brake pads which were brilliant!
Powerstop is great i got z23/26, the change in brake dust is night and day. Dirty in 1 week oem vs 2 months.
I used PowerStop when I did mine about 6 months ago. Nothing fancy (no slotted or anything crazy). A decent rear set (rotors/pads) is probably around 100 USD
If the price is right - yeah, but there are better alternatives than BOSCH, for a little bit more. I installed brakes front and rear, new pads, rotors etc ~9-10months ago, they squealed like a pig for 5-6 of them, and I drive quite a lot, not just short commutes to the shop and back. They have been properly broken into, did everything to spec, bought genuine parts, not a knockoff, squealing like mofo. At the same time, I did brakes on my dads car, diferent brand, and price was ~1 euro more. 0 squealing from day 1, even during break in period. Before they were really good, now - not so much. They work, and they will do the job fine, however there are better brands, that offer value for the price you pay. I avoid batteries made by them, because they like to go bad after warranty.
The front and rear pad kits were wrong. The shims for the front pads did not fit and the rear pads were for my model WITHOUT electric parking brake. The rear pads have rivets in the way on the inner pad which interfere with the solid piston.
