Brake pads Bendix or DIXCEL
I see no one mentioning bendix, they’re the only brand I’ve run on my 2010 Holden Colorado and work exceptionally well
Pros: work exceptionally well
Stock calipers with Dixcel SD slotted rotors and Dixcel ES pads.
Pros: Good performance
I put Bendix pads and rotors frt n back on mine a year ago.
Doing a good job, we tow and load up with firewood alot.
Nice even wear on everything. Smooth stops.
Pros: Nice even wear, smooth stops
Dixcel ES pads are a “fast street” pad with low noise and dust that out perform oem pads and can be used for light track application also with effective heat range of 0-600 degrees Celsius. I think they’re the best “bang for buck” pad you can get.
Pros: low noise, low dust, good performance
I replaced the front pads with some bendix 4wd pads and machined the rotors, was a noticeable improvement straight away. I also flushed the brake fluid at the same time.
Pros: noticeable improvement
Vehicle:
Mazda
I just did my Rotors and brakes on my 2nd Gen 2005 and used Bendix Rotors PRT5716 for rears and PRT5675 for front. As for pads I used their Premium Copper free CFC1100 and it major difference in stopping feels like its brand new again. Also pads I did before I hated they were Wagner Ceramic Thermo quiet pads and they squeaked non stop min put them in it drove me nuts I got money use out of them and used them till I couldn't take squeaking anymore LOL
Pros: major difference in stopping
Cons: Wagner pads squeaked nonstop
Vehicle:
Nissan
Part number: CFC1100
Bendix pads are very good. I haven't tried their rotors, but I wouldn't hesitate next time I have to change out.
Pros: very good
had a track day over the weekend and saw that a hard, black substance that seems a little rubbery had formed on the brakes. The brake pads are Dixcel ES brake pads. I had not bedded them in and instead street drove with it for a couple months as the website suggested. Brake grease was placed on the pad surface contacting caliper. The track has lots of left turns and I braked from 170+ kmh to 80kmh on the first corner. I'm pretty new so i may have braked deep as I was turning. The substance formed heavily on right front wheel, less on left front and none on rear. Brakes were smoking lightly when i came into the pits. Braking feel didn't change throughout the day as I continued lapping. Car still tracked straight. I tried not to brake too hard and didn't observe any other substance buildup.
Cons: brake smoking, substance buildup
I had bendix on my cars before, the gen CT and metal king has too much metal components, hence its noisy and scratches the rotors.
Cons: noisy, scratches rotors
I bought Bendix DB2315 EURO+ for my Mercedes B180 year 2012 Petrol.
Tried to change the front brake pads and they don't fit.
Cons: don't fit
Vehicle:
Mercedes
Part number: DB2315
