i need to replace all my calipers due to corrosion on 2011 m37x
are aftermarket (remanufactured) ones as good as oem? or will they fail in few years?

should i instead look for OEM calipers from aa 2018 q70> or another model that fits.


and what would be best brand of remanufactured ones to go with.
obviously im not trying to spend ridiculous cash on oem parts for a car that costs less than the parts im about to buy

just looking for some options and suggestions

I just got two remans from Advance Auto for my wife's QX60 last night lol. They are fine and will probably last longer than you intend to keep the car unless you intend to keep the car another 10 years. The ones I got were made by Carquest and just a pro-tip, make sure you lube the slide pins. The ones I got were NOT lubed or the lube had dried up. I lubed everything myself again just to be sure.
