On my ‘18 Scat (Charger) with 6-piston fronts, I changed to the powerstop fronts at 16k, didn’t touch the rears. At 40k now, no regrets, no incessant squealing, no dust.
Pros: no squealing, no dust

I remember the salesman telling us when we bought our outlander XLS back in 2011 was that the were a spartan car company giving you every on the inside. But the doors felt thin to me. We bought it though and I have to say out of all the cars we owned the 5 and 5 and 10 year warranty were amazing. Also that SUV never gave us any issues. We did usual oil changes and had to change the brakes obviously. But nothing other than 1 recall that they took care of. Car was very well built I’d say compared to my Volkswagens Volvos and BMW and minis I’ve owned.
Pros: amazing warranty, very well built
Cons: doors felt thin

Mitsubishi Outlander
I went with the pads from ATE and got them fitted today, all in all it cost around 200 USD / 2000 SEK. 2 years ago the mechanic told me all 4 brakes need replacing. Today when they were replaced the rear ones had about half of the material left and the front 1/3.
Pros: Affordable price, quick fitting
Vehicle:
Ford Mondeo
Go with powerstop for sure. I bought their complete front and rear kit with drilled slotted rotors, bigger bore calipers, z23 performance padsand braided steel lines. Cost me about 800 dollars but if you want just the fronts that's an insanely good price for the front kit even if it doesn't include calipers.Powerstop is the only brand I see in your picture lineup that actually is performance driven.For the record as well I bought the kit 3 years ago and it's been solid I just replaced front and rear pads a couple months ago for the first time and the pads were perfectly even. Haven't had one issue in about 35k miles of driving.
Pros: good price, even wear
Mileage: 35000 km
I have Hawk 5.0 pads with KnS standard rotors and they've been pretty great so far.
Pros: pretty great so far
I did EBC red stuff and replaced pads all around at ~50k miles. My rotors weren't bad at all so I kept the old ones on. My pads coulda gone a few more years also. No complaints!
Pros: no complaints
Mileage: 50000 km
OE benz brakes have small depressions drilled in to the face of the rotors. When those disappear, you need new brakes. If you see dimples, go on to the next square...I have a 2019 C43. Second set of pads front, Second set rear, 106k miles. My wear indicators are almost gone, so I have a set of OE brembo rotors and Benz pads sitting on the shelf. I am waiting for the dashboard warning light...front and rear have a sensor that will alert you when you are almost done.
Pros: long pad life, sensor alerts
Cons: rotors wear quickly

I have the same problem with my M340i. I've looked at Akebono but they don't appear to have any pads for the M340, for some reason non-oem replacement pads are hard to find for this car. Anybody know of a good low dust ceramic pad for the M340?
Cons: hard to find pads
