Max Brakes. Has anyone experienced using these?

Good afternoon all,

Currently shopping around for rotors/pads and my friend who works at his dad's shop said he can get his hands on zimmermans/stoptech and then he mentioned he can get his hands on max brakes on which we both of never heard of before.

I checked their website and their prices are super low compared to others.

Has anyone used their products in any of their vehicles? If so, what are your thoughts?

I'm debating to just get rotors from them and just slap them on my base impreza and see how they are lol. But if anyone can give me a reason not to, I'll stay away.

Also, if anyone anyone can recommend me a place to buy rotors/pads for my vehicle in the GTA/Canada , that would be great!

Thanks!

If I recall I tried max brakes once before on my 323i way back, and I couldn't even brake properly. Surely enough if you drive like a grandpa they work, but for someone who drives spiritedly, STEER FAR AWAY.

Just make sure to get the premium and coated rotors and they should be good
I don't remember what brand I got but I picked up a pair of rotors for around 300 from https://g.co/kgs/NdAHtN

They're in Mississauga and the parts there are priced comparably to the online stores but you can get em right away
