Brake pads POWER STOP or DIXCEL

POWER STOP Brake pads

I went with Powerstop pads and centric rotors from Rock Auto and have been happy with the increase in bite and stopping power. I believe I purchased the hybrid ceramic/metallic pads.

Pros: increased bite, stopping power
Vehicle: Subaru

POWER STOP Brake pads

Currently I have the Power Stop Z23 rotor/brake pad kit, which has worked really well. Originally I had bought some no-name pads/rotors off of Amazon that wore down within 9 months somehow, so I decided to spend more on the Power Stop kit for peace of mind.

Pros: works really well, peace of mind
Cons: no-name pads wore quickly
Part number: Z23

I'm running the powerstop Z23 rotors and brake pad kit. Did it early spring last year. Very happy. I hated the initial bite of the stock pads, God forbid I hit a bump while braking. Pricey but happy with the look + performance. Im in the Midwest.

Pros: good look, good performance
Cons: pricey
Vehicle: Ford Fiesta

I've been happy with Power Stop Z23 Evo pads on both of my cars. Not crazy dusty, squeaky, or bitey and a slight improvement over stock.

Pros: slight improvement, not dusty

I have the Dynamics Package on my Scat Pack and installed Z23's about 1k miles ago on all 4 corners.The car is my daily, no track miles. I am happy with them for my application. There is a bit less initial bite but I honestly don't notice it anymore. The brakes will still hit like a brick wall if you try. The brake dust isn't completely gone but it is 100x less than with the stock pads. Nothing else really to report so far, they are quiet and do the job well enough for me.

Pros: less brake dust, quiet operation
Cons: less initial bite
Mileage: 1000 km

They stop well and the wheels don't get very dirty with brake dust. After about a year, I started to get occasional mild squeaking under very light slow stopping conditions.

Pros: stops well, minimal brake dust
Cons: occasional squeaking
Part number: Z23-1711

I am running the power stop cross drilled and slotted with carbon fiber and ceramic pads. But it is only because it was so cheap I couldn't pass it up.

Pros: cheap, carbon fiber

I recommend Powerstop pads and rotors. I’ve had their pads for about a year and the pads are about an 8th worn. They say they’re carbon fiber infused but I don’t know how accurate that is. But they feel great and for performance rotors they offer a lot of bang for your buck.

Pros: great feel, good value
Cons: pad wear unknown
