Brake Kit Suggestions and Questions

Cquence and R1 single piece rotors are just DFC rotors, also the "high carbon" rotors they sell on their site are lies:

Bad - Buyer Beware R1 Concepts Carbon Geomet

To anyone looking at getting R1 Carbon GEOMET series rotors, beware that they are NOT selling you high carbon rotors. The model number they are selling (for OEM blank) is 60421038 (front) 60421039 (rear). These are NOT the high-carbon version. After finding out they are selling DFC rotors...

For blanks or any one-piece rotors I would go with DBA or Centric.

Would you happen to have the part number for centric and dba ? Front and rear. Want to compare prices and make sure I’m getting the right ones.

Never go with R1, they are garbage. I had a set of front pads from them on my STS what literally lasted less than 10k miles, it was totally ridiculous.

Which R1 Concept pads were you disatisfied with on your Cadillac?

Couldn't even tell you, at this point. That was like 4-5 years ago probably.

Centric has been out of the high carbon fronts for awhile now, you can get the rear rotors though. 125.50041

DBA 43342S, 43343S

Tire Rack still shows front and rear OEM (which are high carbon) as in stock, but I'm not sure how accurate that is..
