Brake pads Ferodo or OEM KIA
Gt4 brake pads ran me about 1000-1100 for ferodo ds3.12.
It’s got 102,700kms on the clock and owned it since new. I’m still on my first set of brake pads.
Ferrodo DS2500 is probably the best dual duty pad.
Ferodo ds2500 pads which are a high performance street pad which is trackable. I took it to the track today and had zero fade or brake issues. Then, I let my crazy fast instructor drive and rip the shit out of the car for 20 min straight. By the end of the round, the brakes were smoking. But still, no fade, and those weren’t even track only pads.
I've been using the DS1.11 this year, and they've been fantastic. I have about 12 or so track days on them and still have some life.
I like the DS3.12 on my GR86
Love the 3.12s. They will chew thru your rotors tho
Ferodo DS2500 feel good but don't last as long as the CP's and have a bit more dust.
Aftermarket on some newer Kia models can cause judder.
Kia Sportage SUV, brakes locked up about 2K miles in, shop "fixed" it, the next week it literally spontaneously combusted in the wee hours of the morning.
