Brake pads OEM Honda or WILWOOD
These new ceremic pads can last pretty long. My Honda has almost 70k miles and still plenty pads left.
Pros: long lasting
Mileage: 70000 km
Two rotors=$100. Set of pads about $50. Couple wrenches, jack and jack stands.
Pros: easy to replace

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..
Pros: updated pad helps
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
I am easy on brakes. I coast to stops and don't speed either. I have a 2009 Fit. I swapped the front pads and rotors at 120,000 miles just because. They totally did not need to be swapped. I have since put 97,000 miles on the replacement pads and rotors. The ceramic pads I installed have plenty of life left. The rotors are near the end, but still work.
Pros: long lasting, good quality
Cons: rotor wear

Honda Fit
Mileage: 217000 km
I put 68k on my 21 accord in about 2 years. Pads were all at 7mm. 80 percent highway, 20 percent city.
Pros: long lasting, good wear

For years my brakes on my CRV squeaked. My dad replaced them. A few other people/shops worked on them. Still squeaked. I'm talking YEEEAAAARRRRRS. I resigned myself to being *that person* at every friggin stop light. Needed new brakes again. Unique situation as it was, the Honda dealership ended up doing it. It was like $500 but they stopped squeaking!!!! It was heavenly to be a silent stopper.
Pros: stopped squeaking
Cons: brakes squeaked for years

Impressively even wear. Got every bit of life out of that set.
Pros: even wear, long life
Vehicle:
Honda Accord
Seeing what looks like a Prelude wheel, why not just get the OEM honda brake pads? They are acceptable for most daily use, and the brake dust isn't to terrible to deal with
Pros: acceptable for daily use, not terrible dust
Vehicle:
Honda Prelude
The brakes were so-so, and it had lots of torque steer, and benefited greatly from an aftermarket and much stiffer rear ARB, which improved its turn in and corner habits tremendously.
Pros: improved turn in, corner habits
Cons: so-so brakes, torque steer
Vehicle:
Honda Prelude
If there's a sore point on the Si, it's the brakes. It's that initial application is far too touchy, making smooth heel-and-toeing difficult especially when only light brake application is required. That abruptness proves annoying even in hard use, and the slightly spongy pedal feel doesn't help matters.
Cons: touchy, spongy pedal
