Awesome brakes!
These brake pads were so easy to install and the braking feels like a cloud - soft and fluffy! :) If you are frustrated by squeaky wheels than this is the product for you. This was my second time installing brake pads on a car and my first time on an Altima and it was quick and easy. As a female, I needed help from my dad to put back the cylinder, but other than that I can do it on my own. If I can do it, anyone can do it.

Product Not As Advertised!
The photo on the website shows the metal clips that the brake pads move against. These clips are not included with the brakes. I believe this is false advertising and returned the product. It does look like a quality product, it is just not as advertised. I checked with multiple stores and none included the clips shown. Disappointing

My brakes are excellent
Awesome brake pads BUT IMPORTANT SIDE NOTE FOR NISSAN OWNER
Submitted 4 years ago
The brakes are great and seem high quality. IMPORTANT SIDE NOTE FOR NISSAN OWNERS!!! The brake hardware for this kit were scratching my rotors. This was due to the bottom part of the brake hardware being to small. To fix this I asked the shop to replace my bottom hardware for top portions ( why? Because when replacing my old brakes I notice the previous owner did this and the store was like " well if that work let's try it"). How do you know which ones are tops and which are bottoms you ask? First understand that there are 2 parts of the brake hardware ( Not the brake PADS those fit fine) A top part and a bottom part. Secondly, according to a Nissan's dealership diagram the top portion of the brake hardware have an extended piece of metal and the bottom portions seem to look like regular'o hardware part ( which means they look square in shape nothing to special to their structure). This is not the first time this happened either. When I bought just Advanced Auto's brake hardware for my Nissan Maxima 2005 SE the brake hardware was scratching my rotors too.
Summary : The brake pads are awesome and sometimes something as small as brake hardware not fitting right can change a 45 min job into a 2 hour job and for that I gave it a 3/5 instead of a 5/5. I would recommend these to a friend, and unfortunately have to explain the brake hardware situation. Since I would call anyone who can change their brakes by themselves a friend I share this information above to you. " Only a fool learns from his own mistakes. The wise man learns from the mistakes of others" - Otto Von Bismarck
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
These are excellent quality parts !!
