Review: Break pad - These are a perfect fit for 2015 toyota rav The kit comes with the vertical stabilizer spring as pictured - even with these and the backing grease they are slightly louder than those replaced. The guide clips do have some resonating, but this should fade with time and after that breaking-in period the low speed squeak should too. Overall these are a very good replacement pad. Review: If the pad fits! - Normally I'm a pretty avid Akebono user, as those are the pads that typically installed in a vehicle from factory and always performed consistently with superb mileage to dollar spent, however, I bought these Raysbestos by mistake and ended up keeping them as a back up. Well, being in a pinch and short on pennies, which were used for the rotors, I'm glad I had these to fall back on. I paired the Element 3's with Centric Premium Rotors on my Tundra and wouldn't you know it? The darned thing stops. Quietly, I might add, along with more linear feedback in the ABS than the Akebono provided which is actually quite comforting. I made sure to bed them as correctly as I could given the hot Southwestern environment I live in, but so far, with 500 miles in on them, they seem to be making themselves at home. Time will tell, as I expect warped rotors and shortened pad life long term, but so far, they stop just as quiet as the AKEBONO, and have a bit more bite, which is comforting considering these trucks are known for having crummy braking (warping, overheating, fade, etc). However, mileage is what will really set the tone here as my Akebono gave me 70'000 hard miles in the mountains, off road, stop and go, highway, and towing. If I get 40'000 out of these, I'll consider the savings a good investment. I'm impressed thus far as I've never used Raysbestos before, but they come with ample stopping power, they are a good snug fit in the calipers, and are very quiet for the Semi-Metallic/Ceramic hybrid material. New slide pins would've been a welcome bonus, but no brake pad manufacturers provide those in the package as far as I know. But the retainer clip is also snug and everything went together nicely, providing shorter stops, smooth braking, and peace of mind. So far the savings are making themselves known. Update:: after about 1000 miles, let me say that these have a monumental bite compared to the Akebono. I'm very impressed with how smooth the braking is with these pads. I'll get some squeak here and there, but nothing intrusive or off putting. Just hot brakes in 110° ambient weather, which Akebono didn't so much as peep until they reached squealer tabs, but that's neither here nor there considering the improved bite. Just keep in mind, the rotors are just as important as the pads. So this makes for a good pair thus far. 3000 Miles in, and we've driven loaded down across the state for a camping trip through canyons mountains and steep hill 7% grade climbs and descents with enough switchbacks to make you vomit. And as an added caveat, we were forced to tow our other vehicle through said canyon and mountain. The Raysbestos and Centric Rotor pairing is holding up very nicely. Good ample stopping, obviously the trailer had brakes to assist, but for a truck with no tow brakes going through mountains and steep descents in 110° weather, they held up beautifully. ## Features - VEHICLE APPLICATIONS: 2016-2009 Audi A4 Front, 2013-2009 Audi Q5 Front, 2016-2009 Audi A4 Quattro Front, 2017-2008 Audi A5 Quattro Front, 2015-2012 Audi A6 Quattro Front, 2017-2008 Audi S5 Front, 2016-2010 Audi S4 Front, 2016-2013 Audi allroad Front - Ceramic & Semi-Metallic Formulations: Application-specific formulas for quiet operation and superior stopping power.
