Brake pads Bendix or OEM Honda
I’ve been using Bendix metal king for my car, it outperforms stock pads from Toyota by a lot. For context, I’m from Sabah; under normal driving conditions and without another driver in front basically keeping their foot on the brake pedal. Our steepest mountainous road is Kimanis, gradients ranging from 10% to 25%; it handled the descend perfectly without fading as compared to stock pads. Traversing to-and-fro Kundasang was also a breeze, brakes would typically fade half-way down the mountain with minor traffic ahead. I’m looking to switch to Bendix Ultimate come time to change my brake pads. Though I have to agree with the brake dust, but if you wash your car once a week then it shouldn’t be that awful.
Pros: outperforms stock, good fade resistance
Cons: excessive brake dust
Two rotors=$100. Set of pads about $50. Couple wrenches, jack and jack stands.
Pros: easy to replace

Honda
All 10th gen civics do this.. 10th gen accord, and we've noticed it on some 11th gen civics, too... There was an updated pad that's supposed to help with it..
Pros: updated pad helps
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
I am easy on brakes. I coast to stops and don't speed either. I have a 2009 Fit. I swapped the front pads and rotors at 120,000 miles just because. They totally did not need to be swapped. I have since put 97,000 miles on the replacement pads and rotors. The ceramic pads I installed have plenty of life left. The rotors are near the end, but still work.
Pros: long lasting, good quality
Cons: rotor wear
Vehicle:
Honda Fit
Mileage: 217000 km
I put 68k on my 21 accord in about 2 years. Pads were all at 7mm. 80 percent highway, 20 percent city.
Pros: long lasting, good wear
Vehicle:
Honda Accord
Mileage: 68000 km
Some DBA T2 slotted rotors and Bendix heavy duty or any other quality brand pad will be good.
Pros: good quality
2019 civic. Replaced front pads and rotors at 90k miles but only because road salt fucked up rotors which caused the pads to wear unevenly.
Cons: uneven wear, rotor damage
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
Mileage: 90000 km
I had rears replaced at 40k. At 60k now. I’ve always had a rumbling sound and vibration when breaking from 60-55 mph (around 57) since 40k.
Pros: long lasting
Cons: rumbling sound, vibration
Vehicle:
Honda Accord
Mileage: 60000 km
Matigas Bendix. Used it on my tucson. Nahihirapan mag brake.
Cons: hard to brake
The problem with Bendix pads is that they eat away the rotors too fast.
Cons: eats rotors too fast
