Review on Enhance Your Vehicle's Performance with GM Genuine Parts 171-1007 Front Disc Brake Pad Set and Clips by Ron Turner

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Wow. There's a lot of meat in these pillows!

I replaced them with a 2014 Chevy Silverado that had 107,000 miles on the original brake pads. I figured if the owner had 107,000 miles on stock pads, why the hell would I offer anything else? These are the front pads that provide the bulk of the truck's stopping power. And this is a work truck with heavy loads. It would be foolish to use an unnamed direct-fit aftermarket brake pad on such an important component. This is an area where you should stick with a true OEM. And as with most things, Revain's price exceeds all expectations. You can't get them from dealers at this price. Period. And it's exactly the same element. I have paired them with replacement AC Delco "Pro Line" rotors - model number: 18A1705. The braking power is enormous. The owner is very happy. Attached is a photo comparing the number of pads left versus new after 107,000 miles.
