I just put front brakes raybestos element 3 rotors and pads on the 2020 elantra
was 107$ shipped.
So far I really like the coating. it wore off perfectly where the pads are and braking is nice and even.
It went together like a dream brake job.. easiest one I have ever done BY FAR. everything fit.. nothing needed ground or filed.
the 2 outside front pads were about 1/4 remaining, one inboard pad was maybe 1/8 and the other was microscopically away from hitting the pad backing.. maybe 1/32 max and feathering slightly thinner.
3.5 years, 4 winters to get super crusty, and 33800 miles.
I treated all the regular spots with some goodman products "pastelub" Its almost like a dry(er) anti-seize. 40+% solids lube.
and cleaned and relubed the sliders with sil-glyde.
They are pretty much my go to because I like the coating. I would consider others if they were backordered or OOS..
The centric higher line is decent too IMO.
The element 3 pads are also "taller" and contact the rotor slightly more than the stock pads..
check out how badly rusted these rotors are.. you dont even see the ugly side.
also the thin pad pictured.
New rotor. gave the hub and surrounding areas a quick wire wheel but it was mostly "stained" vs actual rust and crust
a couple blasts of krown on it before I reassembled.
