Brake pads Raybestos or GALFER

Raybestos Brake pads

Raybestos has always treated me well. They feel close to OEM but last longer and stop stronger under load. I've run them on work trucks and they held up fine with trailers.

Pros: close to OEM, last longer, stronger stopping, good for towing

Raybestos Brake pads

Went Raybestos and they have been good so far. I wasn't impressed with the pads machining quality though. They just looked rough, but I haven't had any issues in 20k miles with some towing use.

Pros: good performance, no issues, good for towing
Cons: rough machining quality
Mileage: 20000 km

Rating 3.5

i went with Raybestos Element, after reading they performed OK, and the price is fairly inexpensive. so far OK with minor issues. during installation, i shaved a hair off the pad material and the pad ears to get them to fit not as tightly. and after installation, the pad sometimes makes a click sound when changing direction of travel, or sudden acceleration after a complete stop. i think the pad is moving around in its mount and making a sound. did some searching and this might even happen with OEM to some people. i added more grease to the pad backing, noise went away for a few weeks, but later returned.

Pros: inexpensive, acceptable performance
Cons: clicking noise, loose fit
