Brake pads R1 Concepts or OEM Toyota

I have a 2006 4Runner with almost 350,000 miles on it. Solid as a rock. All I do is change the oil and occasionally replace the break pads.

My 2021 is now around 75k miles. I’ve changed the oil, tires and brakes.

For example: my 2007 3MZFE Toyota with 227kmi -- considered one of the most reliable drivetrains ever built -- has required brakes, a wheel bearing, an intake rubber coupler, an alternator, and power steering lines replacement this year alone.

I’ve had my Toyota 4Runner for 13 years now. Never needed to change my brakes or encountered catastrophic engine failures. Maybe lucky but per Toyota, the 4Runner is rated for 22 MPG on the highway and I’m getting 23.5 MPG.

Didn't need to even change the break pad more then once. Never need to to add oil because it never burned any. Even on its last oil change no sign of burning or sludge build up.

amazing truck - I daily drove one in California (gasoline 1fz-fe is arguably the best Toyota motor ever IMO) for several years. Geared for off-road, doesn't cruise comfortably on freeways above ~70mph. 12-13 miles per gallon city or highway, always the same number. It never stranded me, so very reliable.

Stock brake pads lasted 3 track days which is insane for £65. Ive never had such good stock pads, I nearly always upgraded them and I'd never use stock pads on track as thats mental, but these are insane.

I slapped in some r1 concepts pads and rotors on both of my Subarus after the oem ones kept warping.

just waring yall about this company.. they dont care about product quality and safety.. had an issue with my setup only 1 month outta warrty and they said pound sand .. they dont care .. brake pads are made in china and rotors now too.. the pads will fail you big time even if you have a daily driver... never again will i buy a product from them

Just changed a 4Runner with 80k miles, the pads were worn flat all the way down.
