Pros: huge improvement
I have the T2s and the DBA SP Street Performance Brake Pads, the green ones, on 4 corners along with SS brake lines. They have been rock solid since sept of 2022 over 50k miles. Hardly any brake dust compared to Stoptech street semi metallic. They are a great all-round setup, Street and canyons.
Pros: rock solid, little brake dust
Mileage: 50000 km
I'm running DBA Street Performance pads. Low dust and performance seems fine. I'd buy again.
Pros: low dust, fine performance
I changed my wife's KIA Soul pads at 60k miles. Used OEM pads. Checked a month or two ago and they were still halfway through. She is at 200k miles.
Pros: long lasting
Vehicle:
Kia Soul
Mileage: 60000 km

Pros: brzdy menené

Lastly, I had the well-known brake pad deposit problem on the rotors, which over time (about 5-6k miles for me) would cause the steering wheel and car to shake a bit when breaking, similar to the feeling you get when the rotors are warped. I had the rotors cut once, then all four rotors and pads replaced, and then the front rotors were replaced again. As many other Stinger owners online have said, once they replaced the stock rotors and pads with a good set of aftermarket rotors and pads, or some even just machining their stock rotors and getting new aftermarket pads, that seems to have solved the issue for them.
Pros: aftermarket pads solved issue
Cons: brake pad deposit problem
Vehicle:
Kia
Mileage: 20700 km
Junk. Brakes are too small. Have to replace quickly. Plastic shit interior.
Cons: brakes too small, plastic interior
Vehicle:
Kia Sorento
I installed rear DBA ceramic pads and rear TRW ceramic discs last weekend and after a week I’m seeing these aggressive scratch channels circled in red. I do hear a constant scraping while driving without braking.
Cons: constant scraping while driving
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Factory tires are garbage, but good all seasons and it gets around in the snow fairly well. My rear brake pad that had little wear, fell apart while driving in the mountains around the same time ( not covered ), I have never seen or heard of this happening before here or on other vehicles.
Pros: good all seasons
Cons: factory tires garbage
Vehicle:
Kia Soul
