BOSCH BC914 QuietCast Premium Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Set - Compatible with Select Acura ILX; Honda Accord, Civic, CR-V, Element, Fit; FRONT

This is my third time I am buying Bosch breaks pads. I can say that I don't see any difference between these and the original manufactures brands that are by the way expensive. Bosch makes good quality products for more affordable price. I strongly recommend this product. Since I began using this item, I have not gone back to the OEM parts. Breaks are effective and do not make any noises either.

At first I saw a few reviews of bad compatibility and I couldn’t believe it because BOSCH has been around for way too long, and trusted by the big boys in the auto industry. I got these for a 2011 Honda Accord and I cannot be more pleased with the quality, fitment, and price of the pads! 5 stars!!! Highly recommend

The spring clips have a tab on them that is not on the OEM Honda clip, The tab rubs on the rotor.

This part is supposed to fit a 2014 Honda CR-V, 2 wheel drive. I did not check the pads, but the hardware is not the same as OEM and too narrow to keep from coming in contact with the rotor. See photo. Four pieces of the clean looking part at the bottom came with the kit. The soiled 2 are OEM and are different pieces in the top and bottom position. Note how much more narrow the bosch part is.Additional review commentary after comparing this bosch kit with the OEM.Many Honda parts are crazy expensive but the brake pad kit was not that bad. The Honda kit does not include any stainless steel slider parts. The parts counter guy gave me the price of the slider parts and those are crazy expensive. He said the mechanics just cleanup the old ones as they are seldom anything but dirty. I cleaned mine with isopropyl alcohol and they looked fine. The OEM pads come with overly complicated looking shims. Based on the parts removed, all pads get a shim attached to the back. The OEM pads also come with new spreader springs. The service life of the OE pads was 85,000 miles and they were not completely worn out.

Quality pads, no noise, better braking performance, lasts well. I rely on these to keep me and my wife safe. These are just a few dollars more for a lot of peace of mind.

They arrived like new but had been used - just slightly. They went on and work just fine. The Bosch pads are normally $55 a set. I’ve used them on all my cars and typically last 40-50k miles with light use. I feel like Bosch pads have better stopping power than cheaper ones. Especially when the critical moment happens where you desperately need them.

I installed these 3-4 years ago on my Civic. I've probably gotten ~50k miles of use. Today they've started making a grinding noise. I've never had brake pads not utilize a squealer indicator.
