Pros Works great stops quiet.
Cons Squeaks after a bout 1000 mile when slowing stoping.
Recommended yes

Comments: Great for being what the dealer put on. I would go for better Wagner brakes are usually budget brakes IMO, and for a few dollars more you can get better brake. But are great for being cheap brakes.

Pros Good stopping power, almost no dust, last for a long time.
Cons LOUD
Recommended yes

Comments: I know they say that the thermoquiet's are quiet, but i can tell you they are not, atleast not at first. For some reason, every set of these brakes I've installed on my vehicles requires somewhat of a break in period. After about 4k miles they quiet up. Ive greased all the metal to metal contact points, the bolts, ETC. and they still seem to make a little noise until they wear in. Afterwards they are great, little to know noise at all. Im still on my first set with the jeep ( i've put abut 9k miles in them.) and usually get about 40k+ miles to a set of these (front pads, backs last a little longer depending on what kind of driving and hauling im doing), but i do not know just yet how long these will last on the jeep.

Pros Bought these for my wj,they were 20% off and another $20.00 with a mail in coupon cost for the pads was aboot 100.00 for front and back.new rotors 46.00 each.Not bad for 300.00
Just make sure you wash the new rotors in hot soapy water befor install and also wipe down with break cleaner to get rid of the protective coating they put on them for transit and shipping.

Pros Super quality, long lasting, great performance
Cons A bit more pricey than other stock repl's
Recommended yes

Comments: Put Wagner rotors and Thermoquiet semi-metallic pads on the 94 ZJ at about 180K miles. Before this, every set of brakes gave me problems, the rotors would ALWAYS be warped within 5k miles. The Wagners are still going strong. The pads are still about 60% left, and I drive pretty hard. They have been very quiet since day 1; most people have noise problems with the Wagners because they do not burnish the friction after install. If you do burnish them, you'll have much better luck. I only get a little chirp when I first drive after a rain storm. Definitely spend the extra $$$ and choose the Wagners over the other parts store "in-house" brands.

Pros Very quiet from beginning. Reasonably priced. This price included the slider hardware which is actually what I found needed replaced after getting old pads off. Old pads were still in good shape but braking was LOUD! Old sliders were rusty and very nasty.
Cons none yet.
Recommended yes

Comments: $62.00 @ O'Reilly included slider hardware
