Disappointing Quality in Brake System

As a result of my tests, I determined that THE Bosch BE279 blue disc brake is not worth the investment. While it may boast corrosion resistance and durability it did not perform well in terms of stopping power and noise reduction even after proper installation....

Pros
  • Corrosion resistance
Cons
  • Poor stopping power and noise reduction.

Same brand works great on the front

Does not fit my daughter's 1990 BMW 325i The pads were too thick to fit in the caliper. Yes, I pushed the plunger all the way in first. I've braked on this car before. The front perfectly matched the same brand.

Pros
  • Anti-corrosion coating prevents rust
Cons
  • Not as good as it says
