I tried Powerstop rear brake pads since people talk them up because the OEM pads are discontinued. I bought new rotors at the same time and noticed the rotors looked odd after 500 and found this when I pulled it apart. So in the trash they went, nice waste of money. I replaced them with Akebono and they’re fine so far.

Which pads were these? I've been really happy with the carbon ceramic so far.
