Rating 5.0

I have R1 Concepts on my daily R, I was fortunate to get them when they were on sale through their e-bay store. They work very well on a daily and the brake dust is very low. I really like them.

Pros: brake dust is low

ENDLESS Brake pads

I replaced the pads on with Endless MX-72. Similar progressive bite to OEM, just more and WAY more thermal capacity. They feel like the ultimate brake pad. Using OEM rotors, I've had zero \"warping\" since switching over. This leads me to think that the rotors aren't actually warping but the nature of the OEM pads leads to pad deposits on the rotors. I get close to 60,000 Miles out of a set and have never considered another pad after discovering them.

Pros: ultimate brake pad, zero warping
Cons: pad deposits on rotors
Mileage: 60000 km

I just put on some Endless MX72s. But they are for performance street and occasional track use. And they are not cheaper or probably less noise. But I do expect a great deal better wear with them than stock.

Pros: better wear than stock
Cons: not cheap, noisy

R1 Concepts Brake pads

Did my own with R1 Concepts E-Line pads and rotors. Bought my own parts kit seperate since they don't include them like some brands do. After 40k miles on them, I'm still going strong and will go another 20k before I evaluate their shape. I have slotted and drilled rotors, and you can visibly see the wear on the rotors, the pads are still going strong. As for stopping power I'd say it's average or OEM. No rust after 2 years on them thanks to the coating on the rotors. The surface does rust lightly after a rain storm, but they're clean after driving and braking.

Pros: long lasting, no rust
Cons: average stopping power
Mileage: 40000 km

New rotors and pads without breaking in at all, just normal driving as soon as changed. Pads lasted 30.000km ish, while rotors wrapped at about 40.000km ish (pads replaced at 30k with same R1 concepts). Brake feel and performance was OK, but much worse than when broken in. Light squeal at about 15.000km and onwards. New rotors and pads following break in procedure, 10 stops from 90km/h (55mph aprox), never coming to a complete stop, then driving 30 minutes never coming to a complete stop, rolling to a stop on neutral and waiting another 30 minutes. Pads lasted about 40.000km ish, rotors lasted 80.000km ish, pads replaced at 40.000km with same R1 concepts ceramic.

Pros: longer life with break in
Cons: squealing, worse performance
Vehicle: Honda Civic
Mileage: 40000 km

Red doesn\u2019t have much dust. Same with green. I don\u2019t recommend the R1 concepts sport pads. They are very dusty. Almost worse than stock. Bite and feel is good though.

Pros: Bite and feel is good
Cons: very dusty
