The braking system is worth every penny

I just installed them on my truck yesterday. One of the best decisions I've ever made. I would highly recommend them to anyone. You will not regret it.

Pros
  • Annual trial period
Cons
  • Some cons

No time for love here: Brake kits

Fitted to a converted GMS van - took almost 3 months to rust. They are now scarred and throbbing very badly. The original rotten rotors lasted 17 years - that's junk.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Out of style

Good product and just what you would expect

They fit perfectly and feel great. My truck has 120,000 miles and original rotors. These new rotors greatly improved braking performance. Braking is direct and smooth again. I will note that I also replaced the bearing as it suits these type of rotors. I've read reviews warning about warping. You must pause in the process as instructed. I did and everything worked great. Finding a street/area in my area to burglary was probably the hardest part of the whole setup.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Not as thick as others

Brakes pulsate after installation

Installed a few months ago. The quality of the product seems very good, but after installation I have intermittent brake pulsing. Since the pulsation is intermittent, it may not be due to the rotors, but I now assume it is. Ripple aside, they appear to be pretty good rotors and pads. Update July 2014: The ripple continued to deteriorate to the point where it became unacceptable. Called Revain and they sent a new replacement under warranty in June, almost a year after the original purchase…

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not bad
