So today I had my Powerstop brake kit installed. My 2018 JRUL has 42000 miles on it and I had noticed that the stock rotors looked a bit glazed. With just recently installing 35s I wanted to make sure I adjusted for the larger rotating mass. I have used Powerstop's pads on other vehicles but never their rotors. As someone that works in aerospace I have tremendous appreciation for corrosion protection so I went their Geomet coated rotors:

CARID was the least expensive place I found this kit and with shipping it was a little under $300. These pads have a great feel and the no/low dust is always a plus. This kit is really like an OEM plus style in that is not larger and more aggressive. It just feels better all around.

Those rotors look very nice. How are they working out for you after a few years?
I am switching to Powerstop Z36 pads, but not a fan of their drilled and slotted rotors in the kit. If these Geomet coated rotors are holding well for you, I will pair the z36 pads with them.

they have about 37K (77ishK on the Jeep) on them now and still look and work great.

Thanks for your feedback. I just ordered Z36 pads and these Geomat coated rotors.
