The Quality of These Bosch Brake Pads were Excellent. I read reviews of some people saying they didn't fit or that they had to grind them to fit and some said they had to remove the rear pin on the back of the pad. They either ordered the wrong part or they didn't know what they were doing. These pads fit perfectly in my 2018 Explorer sport with the single cylinder rear calipers. with the new clips installed and the pads in place they fit with precision accuracy. Not too loose and not too tight. As far as the pin on the back, it fits into a slot on the face of the brake cylinder piston , its there for a reason. after turning in the piston with the proper tool ( I had to buy seperately) , I simply lined up the slot directly at the bottom to line up with the brake pad pin ,and it fit in to place perfectly. Note: At first, I had 2 of the clips mixed up and the pad would not fit, there are 2 different clips , 4 lefts and 4 rights for each caliper assembly, you Must install the clips properly or the pad won't fit . I highly recommend these pads. Just make sure you are ordering the right ones and install them properly. these also came with lube for all the moving parts.

The fit was good but they are very noisy (squealing) first application after sitting for a bit. Really bad when humidity is high.

The fit was great mechanic said no issues and the price was great! Put these on my 11 Ford Flex.. the dust is literally to a minimum!!!!! The performance in the rain was shocked how the grip was better than the ones I’ve had on!!!! Took it back so the mechanic can check for even wear! He stated” Sir there is little to no wear and they are even…” Every part was a direct fit with no issues…

Helping a friend with a rear brake job on his 2018 Explorer. Needed a set of pads and checked with RockAuto for the parts. Delivery time was 5 days with FedEx. Check with Amazon and it was a 2 day delivery for literally the same cost. I love RockAuto but their use of FedEx is typically a day late in most cases. Not a problem for routine/planned work but NOT when a vehicle is down. Parts arrived as promised. Premium Bosch pads, great price, easy install and smooth quiet operation. Win-Win-Winw

Fit as expected. I have always bough Bosch for any car part if possible and I have always had great luck with the brand.The brakes are quite and function, but only on my rear of my Taurus so hard to tell if they're soft or not. There are signs of brake dust on my rims though.

Used these at our shop before I retired...hardly EVER a problem compared to many other brands we used! Always Quiet and seemed to be the best bet for the Mini vans that never had big enough brakes for Mom and a whole load of kids Late for soccer practice, as they did not warp the rotors as bad as some pads seemed to. Good price for what you get!

I read a reviewer (one star) here that said he had to grind off the nub because his pads were hanging up on the rotors. Look at his pictures and you'll see that he hasn't lined the nub up with the slot on the calipers which is why he's having problems. Watch some videos on how to install rear brake pads for your model vehicle, in fact watch a few different ones to make sure you have exactly what you need before you start. I installed these, they're a great perfect fit and super quiet. Saved me hundreds of $$ doing it myself as usual.

Tabs had to be grounded. Didn’t fit the calibers ( Ford brand calipers ) Good thing I have a bench grinder. Expected more precision from the Bosch brand

They seem to be of good quality (from what little I can tell), but with no instructions, I had to find out the really, really hard way that there is only one way to successfully install the little insert thingies. On first glance, it is not at all apparent that they have to be installed just so or the pads will not move correctly. Took a long time sweating and cursing and trying all the wrong things before I bit the bullet and took apart the other wheel to (very meticulously) examine it for guidance. So it took 2 installs to get it right. Seems like they could have included an instruction sheet with the parts. I'm never buying Bosch anything again.
