Brake pads Raybestos or GALFER

I've had good luck with Raybestos EHT Element 3 pads and coated rotors on my frontier and my wife's elantra. They are pretty well respected on different forums and not to expensive.

I was using Raybestos ST43s and they had phenomenal friction.

Replaced my front and rear brakes about a year ago with Raybestos (ceramic) and have been happy with it. Stopping power has been great. Didn't realize how bad my brakes were until I put these new ones in.

You got this. Just did the brakes on my wagon myself for the first time and it was breeze. Rock auto had a really good deal on raybestos brakes when I did mine. Worked amazing

I’ve had Powerstop Z36 Impression: just average

Hawk LTS. Impression: very good

Raybestos Element 3. Impression: similar to OEM

Now I run Raybestos “Truck & Medium Duty” front & rear. They’re very good: low dust, low noise, good performance & pedal feel.

1st step, better pads for more initial bite and overall stopping power. Galfer HH can be had for $80 front and rear, you can spend a lot more on performance/track pads if you want the best.

I always recommend the Raybestos Element3 EHT pads and rotors. We use them at work and have very little comebacks. Low noise, low dust, great pedal feel.

I usually get aftermarket Raybestos pads if/when available.

Cracks in front brake pads, approx 15k & 2 years on them. Raybestos Element3 Hybrid Tech.

So I mentioned to Mike at GiroDisc (who is great btw) that I was in the market for pads, and he recommended Raybestos ST43s, which get great reviews. So I went with them, but two events ago they put deposits on the rotors so bad the car shook like mad after a few laps. I still had the HT-10s with me, so I swapped them, they wiped the deposits off and I was back in business for the day.
