Just installed these on my 2014 Honda CR-V, and wow—the difference is night and day. No more embarrassing squeaks at stoplights! The ceramic material lives up to its 'QuietCast' name—it’s like my brakes are wearing noise-canceling headphones.

The molded shim tech is legit. Even after a week of city driving (read: aggressive braking), the pads hug the rotors without that metallic 'ping' sound cheaper pads make. Bonus: My wheels stay cleaner thanks to minimal dust—no more weekly rim scrubbing.

Installation was shockingly DIY-friendly. The pre-attached hardware kit saved me a Home Depot run, and the grease included? Actually useful (unlike some brands’ token sachets). Pro tip: The wear indicator is a nice touch—no more guessing when to replace.

Performance-wise, they bite smoothly without that jerky feel. Tested them on a steep downhill with a full trunk—zero fade. At this price point? Bosch just made my permanent 'car parts that actually work' list.
