I'll be selling/trading the Altima soon however, I still need some new brakes in the meantime. So, I prayed first!
I ordered some F & R brake pads & rotors for the Altima from RockAuto. I had an email from RA as to some closeout parts of all types for the 2015 Altima so I ordered all brake parts(pads/rotors only) for $128 which included shipping, tax & RA discount code#.
All pads(ceramic) came with the hardware and I was able to get everything through the same warehouse so the shipping was LE$$ however the shipping was still $28.
F: pads...Wagner QuickStop Ceramic
R: pads...Centric Post-Quiet Ceramic
F&R rotors are both RAYBESTOS R-Line
I've use these brand/parts at different times on different vehicles but IDK how they'll work on the '15 Altima in signature.
Also IDKwhat the Coefficient of Friction(CoF) of the brake pads are, since when bringing up the "INFO" for the parts, the closeup view didn't show any part# w/friction rating.(******-**** FF or GG). I do hope that they are all FF and not GG. As many of you seem to like a brake pad materials CoF of GG, I do not.
Not that there aren't CoF GG pad that would suit my liking for pad bite, I just have never had CoF of GG pads that I've liked and thus it would be hit/miss for me. GG pads require more pedal pressure and always feel like they're glazed. Maybe GG pads have a better hard/hot stop over FF but, I don't like their initial bite. So therefore, I stay with FF as I am never disappointed.
Wish me luck,
