Brake pads POWER STOP or Raybestos

Bought my power stop Z26 from them - amazing and quality

Powerstop brakes are great. I had them on my Stealth and two other of my vehicles.

I’ve got over 40,000 miles on my Powerstop drilled/slotted rotors and their pads. This is the second vehicle I’ve used them on. They improve stopping distance, almost no brake dust and they wear really well.

I replaced my front brakes with PowerStop products. Very happy with them after about 20,000 miles. No issues.

I really liked the power stop line on my drag car, so I did them on my wife's car to replace the Brembo pads and rotors and used them on my GC and have been very happy with their performance. used to throw the old car around the dragon in the NC mountains with a lot of quick heavy braking and never had fade. I have had them on both daily drivers for 6 years now.

I put a full set of power stop ceramic pads and their drilled rotors 40k miles ago, and they are still great as well.

I would rather save a bit and get similar performance and get the Power Stop Z26 carbon infused ceramic pads. If you don't track your car no need for anything higher end as you won't get anywhere near the temps for these to fade.

I would go with the Raybestos Element 3 kit sold here. $180 total roughly front and back. 2 seperate kits, one for front, one for back. You will find this under the fully coated section here as they have different grades of pads. For the price and how long these last, you cannot beat it. And better than the top quality parts local parts stores carry, in fact Napa sells these rebranded as their premium top of the line brakes and rotors. For the price, and the quality, is by far your best option. There are better pads that will last a little longer, but are much more pricey. With the miles you drive, these will last 5-10 years. I use these on all vehicles in the rust belt, as these are rust coated.

It’s very easy to replace the pads diy in Brembos. I used the powerstop z26 as well. But the fronts squealed something awful (started at like 10k) on low mph slow deceleration and the brake dust on the stock pads suck.

I got the z23 pads with their drilled slotted rotors. They make a weird clicky noise that's nonstop and gets worse when you brake. It's not loud but audible.
