Brake pads Bendix or Mintex
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
In short: support your local motor factors, and buy Mintex brakes and pads. I've a 107 and the Mintex pads/brakes have been brilliant.
Pros: brilliant brakes, excellent pads
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've got a set of Mintex ones, reasonably cheap and work well for the street.
Pros: reasonably cheap, work well

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
As stated, installed new Mintex front pads and I believe I installed correctly. rattle only occurs when not braking, when brakes applied immediately disappears.
Pros: brakes applied, rattle disappears
Cons: rattle when not braking
While I am not overly impressed with the stopping power for the price, I am impressed with how much less they wear after a track day.
Pros: less wear after track
Cons: stopping power not impressive

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
I had Bendix GCT on my cars. Lakas nya kumalmot ng rotor discs nyan that i now need to reface the discs on the yaris. Yung e90 ko is in need of refacing na din dahil sa bendix, ginagasgas nya and rotors. Also produces a lot of brake dust lalo na white wheels ko kita agad.
Cons: Damages rotors, excessive brake dust
I didn't like the Mintex Redbox pads on my Passat. They overheated too quickly and felt spongy.
Cons: overheated, felt spongy
Vehicle:
