I've been running PowerStop Track Day pads since a track day in May. I honestly like running them on the street. The brake squeal at low speeds adds to the shitbox feeling. They feel amazing after proper break in procedure.

Pros: feel amazing, good for street
Cons: brake squeal at low speeds

POWER STOP Brake pads

Power Stop Z23 pads and Z17 Geomet rotors. It’s like a whole new car - I know that may sound weird but it really drives better, I’m hyper aware of my car and the ride is smoother. I did it at 69k miles, and I wish I had done it earlier.

Pros: drives better, smoother ride
Mileage: 69000 km

I replaced the dusty, loud semi-metallic Brembo pads with Powerstop z26 pads on my 6-piston front and 4-piston rear Brembos. Been on them for 2 years, NO dust, NO squeak, great bite and excellent cost. Super easy DIY too.

Pros: no dust, no squeak, great bite, excellent cost, easy DIY

My experience with PowerStop (on my old Mazda 3) is that they tend to have more bite but, wear out quicker and have more brake dust than OEM. That being said, they were quiet and held up fine until they were fully worn down.

Pros: more bite, quiet, held up fine
Cons: wear out quicker, more brake dust
Vehicle: Mazda 3

Complete shit. I have replaced failed power stop with auto parts house brands before I stopped selling their products because they were such an issue and the parts store ones were better.

Cons: complete shit, failed, issue
