Brake pads POWER STOP or OEM Honda

I did power stop drilled slotted with carbon ceramic pads but I got the labor for a good deal , or if your handy they Work great and look nice .

My mk5 rabbit is on its 4th set of Powerstop pads in the rear since I swapped all four corners to their pads and rotors. The fronts will probably be changed this coming summer. They still have plenty of meat on them.

Powerstop z23, get them from Rockauto.

Power stops. I’ve had mine in there for well over 75k. Same pads and rotors the whole time.

I just replaced both pads and rotors at 100k with R1 Concepts rotors and power stop pads. Seems fine.

Did mine a couple months ago. They feel good and stop well. Decent price. No noise.. would do it again. The hardware wasnt great and ended up reusing the oem clips.

I've replaced a battery, 2 exhausts and brake pads in that time. Literally that's it, just maintenance and fuel.

Power Stop Z26 pads and rotors. They dust much less than stock, have lower initial bite, which helps with heel/toe downshifts, but similar overall bite to stick pads. I wouldn't try a heavy track day on them, but they're great as a set for aggressive daily driving. I ran the Z23 pads on OEM discs for nine years and approximately 50k miles and they were fantastic. I just upgraded to the Z26 pads and swapped discs about 500 miles ago. Zero complaints.

Last week front passenger brake began making a metal on metal grinding noise. Assumed it was brakes because this vehicle has been a frequent brake pad/rotor-replacee due to the mileage of the car. The brake pads were very low. Drove the car around for about 30mins today and no grinding noise BUT the front passenger was very hot and didn’t smell good.

I replaced the rear pads and rotors with Power Stop pads and rotors. Bleed. Did break in proceedure. No change.
