Brake pads Brembo or Akebono
I got 85000 mi from the original ceramic pads then replaced the rotors and pads (with Brembo).
If you are cheap like me you will swap to Akebono Ceramic pads. Rotor will last 4x longer.
Akebono are the oem makers for toyota pads. I have used those with great results on a higher quality rotor.
I believe Akebono makes them. I put them on all my cars, the ceramic pads are quiet, little dust, don’t fade and last a long time.
Akebono ceramic pads are great. Stop well, very low dusting.
I changed the front pads and rotors for the first time in my ‘17 at 116k miles in July. I went with Zimmerman Z coat 312mm non-pp rotors and Akebono ceramic pads. 4k miles on the new parts and the bite and pedal response is excellent!
GSF car parts have Brembo disks and pads front and rear £228.31 inc vat
I put on some Brembo ceramic pads on the rears and it felt a tad softer braking.
I had Brembo rotors and ceramic pads front and rear on my 2017 V60 T5. Rotors were fine, the pads wore out ridiculously fast. Switched to Akebono pads and was much happier. They lasted literally twice as long.
Brembo are made under license and are rubbish.
