Review on πŸ”΅ Bosch BC1280 QuietCast Premium Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Set for Acura MDX, ZDX & Honda Pilot - Front by James Duffield

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Requires new pads and rotors after 2 years

I replaced the front brake discs and pads with Bosch pads and discs on a 2011 Honda Pilot EX-L about 2 years ago. I had to replace both after the wheel started vibrating under moderate braking. When I removed the pads I saw that there were rotor chips embedded in them that matched the notches on the rotor. Overall not bad to get 2 years but the pads still have plenty of life. I'm not sure if the rotors are to blame for the chips or if the pads were too hard and scratched the rotors. I went for Autozone rotors and Duramax ceramic pads, this time with free shipping and a 20% discount.

Pros
  • Slotted and bevelled for superior quality, fit and functionality; Hardware kit (if equipped) and synthetic grease for complete brake replacement
Cons
  • Upgradeable
