I might get scolded by the purest, but I went with these R1 Concepts on my 2019 X5.\n\nI too was shocked when the dealer quoted over 2k for brakes, so I started looking at options. I\u2019ve had them for about two years, they have performed excellent and they look amazing.

Pros: performed excellent, look amazing
Vehicle: BMW X5

OEM pads and rotors for brakes

OEM gave me 140k miles with stock setup, but only about 60k with Titan swap, wider stance, more weight

Pros: long lasting stock setup
Cons: less mileage after swap
Vehicle: Nissan
Mileage: 140000 km

I’ve got an 06 350z, driven it for a year put only 5k miles but, had no problems. I also own an 05 g35 with the same DE engine and it’s got 135k and never had any major problems, and I’ve put over 110k of those miles on that car. No major repairs..1 air bag recall, I redid the clutch at 125k, had to rewire the trunk to work, and I replaced a window motor. Nothing else but, oil changes, brake jobs and battery changes. Both cars are fun to drive, and being as old as they are they cost me very little to maintain, insure, and pay minimal amount for property tax. For some perspective. Next week i’m doing the front and rear brakes on the Z. It’s gonna cost about $65-70 for parts.

Pros: no major problems, low maintenance cost
Cons: clutch replacement, trunk wiring, window motor
Vehicle: Nissan
Mileage: 5000 km

Surprisingly, R1 Concepts Track Pads. They have been really great on the track (3800lb/310hp? car).

I left them on my daily since I am too lazy to change out the pads and they have been on for about 6 months and a few track days. They are great for the street and track but dusty as hell. They only make noise when it’s cold outside other wise they are fine.

Pros: great for street and track
Cons: dusty as hell, noise when cold

Had one 2023 with 31k miles and so far so good , yet the one about the brakes exhaust early is true , maybe you need to change them once every year

Cons: brakes wear early
Vehicle: Nissan Pathfinder

I have the 2023 Rockcreek edition, and at 60,500 KM and regular maintenance, no problems to report. Had to do one wheel alignment so far, and change the brakes both front and back at around 48,000 KM which was the only problem. They need bigger brakes. But I also pull twice a year a trailer for vacations which is almost 4000 lbs. so i guess it might be normal.

But overall I’m happy with it.

Cons: brakes need replacement early

Cons: brake pads replaced early, brake noise
