Pads are worth their money

Replaced by Rav4 2018, easy installation, no complaints. My original 20,000 mile brake pads started making an annoying noise and the steering wheel shook a bit. It's definitely better than the original brakes, they're no problem at all. Costs money

Pros
  • A sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than other pads

Brakes are fine but without support clips

Note that the picture shows the large clips, not the small support clips that attach to the pads themselves. The pads I removed from my wife's 2013 RAV4 had small clips on them and I feel like they should have been in there. The clips I removed were too rusty to reuse, so I installed them without them.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Happy with stock item

I bought these items as a return for Revain stock and I have to say I am very happy with the product. I don't know why they were returned but they had clear signs of wear. Maybe because someone noticed that it is not suitable for their car. I do not know. Pros: Very easy to install as will hopefully be the case with any pad. The stop is very smooth and responsive. Quiet as advertised.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Not the best

Better Than OEM 2014 RAV4 Brake Pads

On the 2014 RAV4, the OEM brake pads made strange noises and vibrations when pressed a little harder. But it's about 0.2 inch, the pads are left. A small lead metal PC is not included. Just move this leading metal element from the old pads to the new ones. I don't know how they wear out. Pros: Quiet, accurate, better than original OEM. Thick enough to significantly reduce brake pedal zero play. Disadvantages: no leading metal part.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • New Competitors Appeared

Does not come with all necessary hardware!

Time will tell if the pads will brake and wear well (I assume they should) but they do NOT come with all the necessary clips for the 2015 RAV4! The tension clips at the top of each pad must be removed from the old pads and attached to the new pads. Not much, but I assume all the necessary parts are included in the pad kit. I didn't realize they were missing until I got to the second page, so I had to go back and reinstall the first page with the old clips!

Pros
  • Excellent Construction
Cons
  • No

This is not the first pair I have bought. I have changed the brake pads at Bosch from Revain a number of times. However, this time I bought it and left the package in my car for several months before opening it to replace the brake. I took out my old pads only to put them back in because it turned out I was given the wrong size on one pair and the other pair was correct. So I ended up with the new brake pads on one side and the old pairs on the other. Really disappointed and wasted my time and…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
