I'm using Dynamic Friction pads from RockAuto and they haven't let me down, grey performance and heat barely affects it.
Lasted through two track days and still have a ton of pad life left.
AutoZone Duralast Ceramics have basically lasted forever. They have a lifetime replacement for free, so I paid like $100 for front pads once, and gotten em free since. Easy DIY.
Amazingly, after 24.5K miles, i was down to 2mm on my front pads. I do live in Seattle and on a steep hill and drive with a heavier foot, so go figure I used up my brakes. Decided to put in Brembo ceramic pads and rotors for fun. Braking is different from stock. It’s definitely strong, yet, the initial bite isn’t as aggressive as OEM. I’ve grown to like this as it lets me be more precise with my braking. I can simply slow down lightly without drama, but push more and the brakes grab strongly and uniformly. They just feel more engineered.
I ride a Gt535 it has no ABS no rider modes none of those fancy electronics, but its got Brembo sintered brakes. They work flawlessly and bring the heavy machine to a stop.
Never scrimp on brake pads. However, personally I never buy OEM pads. Manufacturers just brand a brake manufacturers brakes and charge a premium for putting their logo on it. Get the part number and do your research to identify what brand the OEM part is. You should save money for the same brake pad. Otherwise, you could also save money by buying aftermarket pads by quality brands. Brembo, EBC, black diamond. You may find they are available, cheaper and better quality. Worth a look.
Had my Fortuner front pads replaced, Brembo Prime Ceramic Pads: 3500 lang kasama na install sa Jiga.
I just put Duralast Elite Ceramic pads and Duralast Gold rotors on my 2017 5.0 and have been very pleased with them. While not physically measured I’m of the opinion stopping distance has been reduced. Everything you need is in the box and rotors are coated to resist corrosion and have no film to remove before installation.
You can save on the brake pad prices, either buy the original parts from a shop in sharjah for much less or install Brembo Brake pads which also cost much less and are also very good quality.
I currently have OEM rotors and Brembo pads on the car. This bitch stops, but they’re the dustiest brakes i’ve ever had, and I only get about 7 months out of a front and rear set.
For breaks, I will actually advise against the OEM stuff, because it’s really not that great, especially if you have the Brembo package. There are significantly better pads out there, the Brembo ones are hot garbage.
