Serpentine belts...

I just realized today that it's been a LONG time since I changed a fan belt b/c it's worn out.  I change vehicles before then.  Does The Hive have a brand/supplier of drive belts that are understood to be superior to cheap ones...?

I only put Conti belts on my cars if I can help it.

Contis are what I use if I can.

I use Gates mostly.

Contitech is international and used to be Veyance then Goodyear.  
 

I used to sell a lot of Conti belts - go that way.  Gates is good too. 

In reply to Datsun310Guy :

That is amazing, I would not have thought.  Goodyear belts are the last on the list of belts I would intentionally use.

Goodyear Gatorbacks. Only thing the 9C1's LT1 would tolerate.

Gates or Continental belts for me.  Both have been consistently good in every application I've used them in.  And with modern rubber, belts definitely last much longer than they used to.  They don't seem to age out readily anymore, they just eventually wear out (but it takes a long time). 

I have nothing new to add but will bolster the "Continental and Gates" input above.  I worked at a distributor and we sold Continental and they're as good as they get.  We didn't sell Gates but we were an AC Delco distributor and I learned  that Gates makes the AC Delco belts...so I had an option for the die-hard Gates folks.  

I have been using Conti belts for a long time.

OEM Honda belts for my fleet

Conti or gates here also. 

I sense a disturbance in the Force, as if a million voices spoke out and all agreed with each other.

(Gates are good, too)
