Excellent value for money

I bought these by mistake as they are made by Bosch. I've had them for about 4000 miles and they are excellent. They have good OEM stopping power, not as strong as EBC or Brembo pads, but I don't drive a sports car either. Brake dust is negligible, but sometimes there are no squeaks or other sounds. Overall a great seal and they also provide lubrication in the box.

Pros
  • Protective transfer layer extends pad and rotor life
Cons
  • Quality

Make sure the fastening clips fit!

Installed on the 2014 Honda Pilot. The brake pads work well and are easy to fit. The noise level is low. The only issue I have is that the retaining clips were either wrong or wrongly made because they didn't match the brake pads. I would have swapped them, but I had already removed the wheels and the brake calipers when I realized the clamps wouldn't fit. I had to use old clamps (not recommended) to install the pads. Before assembly, make sure the clips match the blocks!

Pros
  • Quiet operation thanks to multi-layer rubber core gasket for increased strength and noise isolation
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Requires new pads and rotors after 2 years

I replaced the front brake discs and pads with Bosch pads and discs on a 2011 Honda Pilot EX-L about 2 years ago. I had to replace both after the wheel started vibrating under moderate braking. When I removed the pads I saw that there were rotor chips embedded in them that matched the notches on the rotor. Overall not bad to get 2 years but the pads still have plenty of life. I'm not sure if the rotors are to blame for the chips or if the pads were too hard and scratched the rotors. I went forโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Slotted and bevelled for superior quality, fit and functionality; Hardware kit (if equipped) and synthetic grease for complete brake replacement
Cons
  • Upgradeable
