Brake pads POWER STOP or OEM KIA

No complaints on bite/fade or fitment.

I have power stops on my 17. I’ve had them on there for probably like 75k miles. Cars at like 150k. Oddly enough, it’s my back pads that are closest to needing to be replaced, even though I put them on like 5k miles after my fronts. No pulsing, shaking, etc. they’ve been great. I figured the drilled/slotted for keeping cool on the track might make them less likely to get messed up in puddles and thus far they haven’t disappointed.

I put a set of PowerStop Z36 on my 2008 Silverado 1500 w/ rear drums and the improvement in brake performance was substantial.

Centric rotors and Powerstop brake pads, I have the Z23s. They stop well and very little dust.

Power stop z17 all the way. Very good quality pad. Never really knew that pad quality mattered until I had a couple cars with squeaky brakes only to find out that installing the power stop pads resolved the squeak. They’re always good about coming with hardware.

I've used Power Stop Z17 and Z23 on many many vehicles with no issues. No noise, low dust, excellent bite.

I did all 4 Brembo rotors + Z23 Powerstop ceramic pads for ~$400 from Rockauto on my F15 35i last year. The Z23 pads are a favorite amongst the X5M crowd I’ve been loving them for over a year now - don’t usually buy Powerstop but these are great. All around great setup

Been running Powerstop for the last 4 years…have been solid for me, no issues.

Can vouch for the Bluestuffs for track days. Bought a set of Power Stop Z26 and loved them for daily driving but burned through them after 1.5 days at the track... had to replace the rotors too after that.

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.
