Brake pads OEM BMW or OEM Honda
I always bought BMW genuine brake pads and rotors, and never had an issue. They work great.
I just shopped around for the brake pads for my 2 series, got the front ones done for £150. It was a trusted garage and they inspected the large m sport discs and said there was life for another set of pads on them after this new set. I’m also quite a light braker, so discs and pads tend to last me a long time.
These new ceremic pads can last pretty long. My Honda has almost 70k miles and still plenty pads left.
On my previous EV, a BMW i3, the brake pads were the same as the Mini Cooper (except for the 2014, which used a shaved-down pad for some reason).
Two rotors=$100. Set of pads about $50. Couple wrenches, jack and jack stands.
All 10th gen civics do this.. 10th gen accord, and we've noticed it on some 11th gen civics, too... There was an updated pad that's supposed to help with it..
First set lasted 70k, the second set 50k as I was cheap and did the pad slap.
2019 civic. Replaced front pads and rotors at 90k miles but only because road salt fucked up rotors which caused the pads to wear unevenly.
Same here. I basically drive a few times per week and clean the wheels at least twice!
But seriously, having owned several BMW's and Porsche products (equally bad for brake dust) I've just gotten used to cleaning wheels more often and ignoring dirty wheels when I don't have time or energy to clean them that day.
