2015 Silverado 4x4 5.3 58,188 miles
Out with the factory rear pads and installed Brembo red pads (PRC) from rock auto. Rear rotors are still decent which is amazing for New England. Outboard pad worst and almost to metal. Piston side not much better.
Removed the Bendix Metlok fleet semi metallic from the front and installed Brembo silver pads (PRC) from rock. Only used the Bendix ~10k mi, awesome stopping power but tired of cleaning wheels every other week.
Front Rotors have 10k and are in good shape. See how these Brembo work after they wear in a bit. Made in China.

Did the front brakes in the 2012 Prius C Two, after finishing the transmission fluid change. Nothing fancy, just Duralast rotors and pads.
2010 RVA4 rear brakes. Dynamic Friction Geospec rotors and pads. Delivered for under $100. 167,348 miles.
Did the exact same brakes on a 2013 Jetta yesterday.was really impressed by the quality.
Did the front brakes on my sisters 2013 BMW 328i last week. Not sure what happened to the drivers side rotor it developed a huge groove in the rotor face on the drivers side and warped badly but the passenger side was fine. I used a Powerstop Z17 kit I think it came with auto specialty rotors fixed the problem and stops great. I used the same type of kit on the rear 2 years ago those are still doing fine.
2011 Fit. Coming to me next week... RA parts on order. Easy $$.
