Great brakes for Crosstrek

These brakes are perfect for my 2018 Crosstrek. Both local stores wanted to almost double the price so I figured I could find them cheaper online. I braked both front wheels at the same time and all 4 (one inner rotor brake and one outer rotor brake for each front wheel) worked fine. I forgot to take a picture of them in the box but they are well packaged and look exactly like the factory pads. I've driven it about 100 miles and haven't had any issues with braking performance or squeaking. Definitely worth the price so far. Note: When installing the brakes into the caliper, make sure that the lower clamp-like metal piece of the brake is INSIDE the pad recess in the caliper. If you notice a small silver scratch on the caliper in my picture below, make sure the brake clamp is over that area so the pad is fully seated against the caliper and rotor. This is the same for all 4 brake pads and the factory brakes are adjusted the same when they are removed.

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Available in white only
