| Max brake pads and rotors
Just wondering if anyone here has used these in their car? How did you like them? https://m.maxbrakes.com/en-ca/

I have a set of rears on my Venza, I think they work fine. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another set for a daily driver.

Do you guys find these are equal to, or better than original/factory brakes? The cost is hard to beat, and my factory warranty is running out soon.

I’m surprised they would rust on a daily driver.

i definitely don't drive everyday and it is parked outside, so it only gets that bad after the rain. driving will clear it anyways, although the centre part where the pads don't touch will remain rusted

I've used them for a few years now on my Impala. For me they last about 1.5-2 years for the rotors and pads. I have used the drilled and slotted ones before and just switched to blanks from them just last year. I find them cheap and they offer free shipping. I do find them to rust more than AC Delco's when it rains and I park the car for a few days.

Thanks for the input everyone.
I am ordering a set to give them a try and see how much I like them.
