Hello HT. So just today, I received my power stop drilled and slotted rotors and some ceramic brake pads (Evolution). I got everything for about $110 with free shipping and I heard a lot of great reviews about this package so i went for it. When I threw the new rotor on, the bracket didn't reach. I was expecting this to be a straight bolt-on job. I compared the rotors and the slotted ones we're more thick lol. Is it as simple as just buying that bracket so it could reach the threads on the part near the knuckle? The new brake pad didn't fit the bracket I had either. Sorry for not being so specific. I included photos to show you guys what I mean

 

Sounds like you ordered the wrong parts but since you didn't provide any info on the vehicle and the part number/s you ordered who knows.

I'm guessing you have a CX, DX or LX trim and ordered EX parts.

 

Ex Parts are different, little bigger..

 

knock off parts sorry they sent you the wrong things, but what do you expect ? my pads cost more then that whole set either way file a claim with ebay

 

Whoa, completely forgot about that. Its a 99 civic hatchback (CX I think). The listing said it would fit my car. Time to send it back

 

Time to send it back. It wasn't from eBay. it was from autoanything

 

Sorry but if your pads were over $110 you either paid way too much or need to finagle your sponsorships more.

OP, appears to be the wrong part for your application.

 

http://www.summitracing.com/int/part...iew/make/honda got them for 130$ including our 13% sales tax I can't find them sub 120$.

 

Wow, the post said that those would fit your application? Ive found the stock parts are more than adequite for day to day driving.

I have had ceramic, semi-metallic, cheap $16 pads and could not in my wildest dreams fathom the need for $130 brake pads.


That (to me not that it does not fit your needs) is putting lipstic on a hog and calling it a beauty queen, aint no one gonna believe you. But I hope it came with a generous bottle of KY lube, Id hate for someone to take it dry while they have you bent over.

 

Considering they're a "track use only" pad for my track car I don't expect most ppl to understand the cost of operating one. They work great for me yes I've bought 40$ pads too for my fit so I think 130$ is high but not crazy.
