Brake pads R1 Concepts or Duralast

R1 Concepts Brake pads

R1 concepts were an upgrade on my 2nd gen and got me through 4 years of abuse because the OEM ones would brake fade terribly. On my Camry they only lasted a year.

Pros: 4 years of abuse, no brake fade
Cons: only lasted a year on Camry

I went with Dynamic Friction instead after hearing lots of negative feedback, so far very happy 6 mo later. I drive fast and they stop very well. Does produce quite a bit of brake dust though.

Pros: stops very well
Cons: brake dust

Pros: better bite, no brake judder
Cons: dusts more than OEM
Mileage: 5000 km

I've been using Dynamic Friction 1000141300 track pads from Rockauto. They've seen 6 or 7 track days now and have work really well without overheating. They also do fine on the street.

Pros: work really well, no overheating
Part number: 1000141300

Duralast Brake pads

I have the Dynamic Friction 5000 low metallic pads and they've been a nice improvement. Have no brake judder, better bite, and a bit more dusting from the pads (great tradeoff IMO).

Pros: nice improvement, better bite
Cons: more dusting

R1 Concepts Brake pads

Pros: they fit perfectly, offer great performance and are cool enough to work on immediately after driving. Con: they sent the brakes for the electric parking brake when I have the cable parking brake. They have been 0 help in providing the bracket to adapt it to the cable break.

Pros: perfect fit, great performance
Cons: wrong brake type sent

I originally had r1 concepts rotors and pads but the pads started to squeak like crazy at slow speeds. Rotors were still good so I put on akebono pads and they are perfect.

Pros: they are perfect
Cons: pads started to squeak
