My 2017 is a bone stock daily driver and I have no plans to do any major upgrades or track my car. That being said, I've never had an issue with duralast gold pads and rotors from autozone. Reasonably priced and the pads have a lifetime warranty, meaning you buy them once and can trade the used ones back in for a new set at any time, no questions asked. The rotors have a 3 year warranty and even though mine are only showing some very minor wear, I'm going to take advantage of the warranty and swap them out for a new set in the next few months befor my 3 years is up.
Pros: reasonably priced, lifetime warranty
Cons: minor wear
Vehicle:
Subaru
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.
Pros: long lasting, heat resistant
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.
Pros: long lasting, easy DIY
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.
Pros: reduced stopping distance, easy installation
Paid £420 + £180 fitting for mine front and back on a 2019 Audi A4 by going via Euro Car Parts when the Audi garage quoted £1200!!
Pros: cheaper via Euro Car Parts
Cons: expensive at Audi garage
Vehicle:
Audi A4

Since starting my drive from NY to NJ daily, ALL my previous cars, Audi Q5 and Toyota Sienna, will start "brake and shake" or was it "shake and brake".. at about a year in at around 10k-15k miles. I am guilty of heavy braking so with it comes excess wear.
Cons: excess wear
Vehicle:
Audi Q5
Mileage: 15000 km
460€ per il primo tagliando della mia Audi Q2, poi dopo aver pagato anche il secondo e avendo saputo che mi volevano cambiare le pastiglie dei freni dicendo che erano finite quando in realtà portandola dal mio gommista e guardando risultavano a metà della loro vita ho capito che 3/4 delle spese messe in carico in un tagliando al concessionario Audi ufficiale sono soldi rubati, ti cambiano pezzi che non servono solo per alzare il totale..
Cons: costi alti, soldi rubati
Vehicle:
Audi Q2
