Brake pads Bendix or Tesla
With regenerative braking, you almost never need to replace brake pads.
Pros: regenerative braking
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
Some DBA T2 slotted rotors and Bendix heavy duty or any other quality brand pad will be good.
Pros: good quality
Repco, whatever model serial for rotors and Bendix pads, then find someone to do it for you.
My father has a 2019 MYP and he still has the original brakes that came with the car new and just passed the 100k miles mark.
Pros: long lasting, 100k miles
Mileage: 100000 km
I just had to do brakes and ball joints on my 2016 Model S (some rough roads, and calipers were seizing from winter corrosion, I live in the state of Maine, US). 100K miles, 160Kkm (160Mm?).
Pros: windshield spritzer
Cons: calipers were seizing
Mileage: 160000 km
On the surface this looks fine, but w203s don't have fancy brakes. Bendix's for these are only $50-90. So they've hidden a lot of labour in that "pad" price. then they've charged you half an hour to change the discs as well. if the calipers are off the discs take about 1 minute each to change. Then did the discs really need changing? these are basic brakes. you can go 2 for 1 on discs to pads on these no problems. it may be they did need doing, but it may be they didn't. So, I'd say, it's not a rip off, compared to say a Stealer, but there is still a bit of fluff in this.
Cons: hidden labor, overpriced

Toyota wigo 2018, Nagpareplace kasi ako ng brake pads (bendix) tsaka nagpa rotor resurface na rin sa isang Shell service center. Tapos when I brake at certain speeds (around 20km/h or more tapos saktong diin lang yung braking), merong knocking noise or thumping noise.
Cons: knocking noise, thumping noise
Vehicle:
Toyota
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
