Review: Great Product!!! - Very Nice! And fit perfectly on my 2003 Honda Element. Great packaging in perfect condition. I’ve been doing brakes for 35 years and found this kit to be well put together with all necessary hardware. Rotors were clearly labeled drivers an passenger side. All components are well made. Significant upgrade from OEM. I did not notice any additional noise. I found them to be extremely smooth and changed the feel of the vehicle completely when stopping. For the first day or two I had to press a little bit harder on the pedal before everything wore in. After a very short break in period they stop amazing. Zero squeaking no squealing smooth powerful and quiet. Follow the directions including the break-in and be sure to apply the supplied grease where they tell you to. Installation took about 45 min per side. I would recommend ordering an impact driver if you don’t own one so that you can easily remove the 2 screws that hold on each rotor. (It’s $10 - just get it) I would buy this again and I will be purchasing a similar kit from the same company for our Subaru Outback and F250.
Review: Cross Drilled/Slotted Brakes a MUST! - I do a lot of highway driving which usually means braking from higher speeds to dead stops do to accidents, construction and other highway delays. My original 2003 Honda accord brakes which were replaced from the dealer but and a few hard stops on the turnpike killed them they were never the same. I believe they warped from the heat. I noticed they were good for under 45 mph stops but anything above that speed there were absolutely terrible and dangerous to make a complete stop with. I decided it was time for an upgrade and I did some researching online and decided to put these Power Stop heavy duty performance brakes on my car as a replacement for the stock junky Honda brakes. What a difference, I have already had to put them to the test a number of times on the turnpike and they stop on a dime with no hesitation. With these pads and rotors you know you can stop even from highway speeds to 0 without any issues. The brakes are nicely plated and still appear like new to look at. I would recommend these brakes to anyone that needs something better then stock. The rotors are packed separately with labels for left front and right front so you do not have to guess which is which and you will know that you got the correct parts. I have had brakes in the past where they would mistakenly give you two of the same side. Shipping was prompt and the install was easy photo installation instructions are also included which is always a plus to have on hand. Overall a great product and quality.
