Brake pads Bendix or WILWOOD
I got Bendix rotors and Bendix ceramic pads from rock auto reasonably priced. Works very well
Pros: works very well
Shoot, I turned the rotors and got Bendix pads from RockAuto. Stopped great and smooth.
Pros: stopped great and smooth
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.
Been using Bendix metal king for my cars. Yes the brake dust sucks, but the braking fade is superior.
Pros: superior fade resistance
Cons: excessive brake dust
I have run Wilwoods on my Corrado for years with the usual rebuilding every two years. Even with ABS under full braking using the BP10 pads it would occasionally lock up fully and blow a cogged belt off the supercharger.
Pros: very powerful braking
Cons: requires frequent rebuilding
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Corrado
Driving a Saga MT 2024. Switched from the stock brakepads to Bendix Metal King's. Drove up and down Genting roads quite often, but damn, the braking grips are not what was advertised, and made worse during rainy days. Luckily I drove a manual transmission saga, so I could balanced out braking hard with employing low gear, to cater to a proper sudden stop, especially going downhill, with all the speed bumps up there. And the brake dust? Lord! It's like I painted my wheels with paint, each time I got home.
Cons: poor grip, excessive dust
Those Bendix Brake Pads have been almost doubled in price over store bought.
Cons: price almost doubled
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
