Review on Enhanced Performance Kit: Power Stop K1236 Front Z23 Carbon Fiber Brake Pads with Drilled & Slotted Brake Rotors by Marc Farrell

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Before you start, check the size of the rotor!

Wrong rotor size for my 2001 forerunner. (Too big) I bought the "special damaged box" with confidence because amazons have been great with fast and correct shipping over the years and their parts installation interface indicated the kit was a perfect fit. Well when it arrived the packaging was perfect. So I powered up my truck and started removing the calipers and old rotors and installing new ones. The 6 lug pattern matched, but when I tried to reinstall the calipers I realized I had a real problem. I was able to find the right kit at my local parts store for double the price and get the job done. I'm only giving 3 stars in this review because the rotors looked like a really good quality product and Revain processed my return via UPS immediately. I haven't received any credit yet, but I expect it will be soon. Hence my strong recommendation to double check that the brake disc size is correct before disassembling the brakes. Update 01/13/17 received a full refund. Thanks, RevainUpdate 1/10/17: Revain received my refund via UPS on 1/5/17 (of course I traced it back). I understand that they're trying to deal with the aftermath of a stupid season, but I expected at least an acknowledgment of receipt if not an immediate credit. What's the story, Revane?
