I spoke with a NAPA rep the other day about these pads. One of my questions was specifically "Where are they made?" The answer was about 90% to 95% are U.S. made by Raybestos??? I've used a few sets and have been very pleased with them.



Sadly they are actually made is china.

It depends on the number. The last few were in fact U.S. made.

The above is something I have tried to point out in many threads about pads. Even though they have the same name most are application specific.

Extremely different from platform to platform.

I just installed a set of Adaptive One pads. Made in USA. I've only driven a little this afternoon, but so far the pads have good feel, and a little less initial bite than what I replaced. I expect them to get better as time goes by, and they bed in some.

My wearever platinums were made in India. Would that be rated better than made in China based off country of origin alone?
