I have them on my scat pack they work real good limited dust and I couldn’t feel any change in stopping power I did the install myself I wouldn’t want to pay the dealer either
Pros: good, limited dust
Owner reviews for brake pads

I used powerstops on the front. I wasn’t ready for new pads but I was tired of the squeaking that was coming from the basic pads I had. I switched to powerstops and they stopped squeaking and like someone else said the dusting wasn’t anywhere near as bad.
Pros: stopped squeaking, less dusting
I just did my 2018 Front pads & rotors at 56k. -As others have done I chose Powerstop Evolution drilled, slotted & Ceramic Pads from Rock Auto

I bought the r1 concept rotors+brake pads. They look great and have lasted for about a year no issue at all. Good quality
Pros: good quality, lasted a year
Just put on new rotors and Hawk pads. Thought I had some squeaking/squealing/grinding because the old ones needed replacing but the problem persisted on the new rotors and pads even after some time.
Last week I applied some Brake Parts Grease that came with my Hawk pads to the pins and bracket on the caliper. It seems to have removed the annoying squeak!!
Pros: removed squeak with grease
Cons: squeaking/squealing/grinding
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
The Jurid pads did work. They were 13.8mm that seems to be the key.
Pros: pads worked correctly
Vehicle:
BMW
I'm only now replacing the pads & rotors *for the first time* during my ownership. The rotors won't pass inspection, but I'm shocked to find that the pads still have 7/32"-8/32" left. As it turns out, I've been running Duralast Gold rotors & Duralast Elite pads the entire time.
That's a phenomenal track record for the amount of "spirited" road I put past this car.
Pros: long lasting, phenomenal track record
Cons: rotors won't pass inspection

Yeah definitely don't buy the OEM brembo pads. Akebono pads are pretty popular but there's mixed reviews on noise/dust levels. Someone recommended Akebono to me, so have been running them for a few months and have had great results so far.
Pros: great results, good performance
Cons: mixed reviews, noise/dust
My EBC red pads do dust but no where near as bad as OEM
Pros: not as bad as OEM
Cons: EBC red pads do dust
Vehicle:
Audi TT
Just had a dealer give me an estimate of $560 for new rear pads and rotors. Unfortunately, the idiot was going by mileage and he never actually looked to see that I just replaced the pads and rotors myself 10,000 miles ago. That was on my 2016 Mazda CX 5.
Pros: null
Cons: overpriced, unnecessary
