Review on Bosch BC1451 QuietCast Premium Ceramic Rear Disc Brake Pad Set for Acura TSX and Honda Accord by Robert Robertson

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Avoid using these pads in your braking system

Lots of problems with these pads for my 2009 Honda Accord. I ordered and received a set of rear brake pads and the first thing that struck me was that the set did not come with spacer springs. The product image showed they would be included. Then I noticed that only one of the 4 pads had a warning tab instead of the expected 2. These 2 things alone made me want to return the item. After getting another new set of pads from my local Autozone store I noticed that the surface area of the Bosch pads is much smaller than the pads I was replacing and also saw that the length of the Bosch pads increased a lot is long! It's possible I got the wrong part, but that doesn't explain the lack of spacer springs or the lack of a warning stripe liner. Very happy with the return process so it's not that big of a deal in the long run. Do yourself a favor and shop locally for this type of purchase. The picture shows the Bosch pads from above.
