I stick to oem pads and rotors because they last a very long time.
Brake inspection during the tire rotation, replace as needed (haven't needed to yet thanks to regenerative braking - I'm at 62k and I think I have OEM brakes).
One thing that I am surprised by are the brakes. They're still fine at 110k, and it's not like this 4,000lb beast has EV-levels of regen.
Here's my side-badged 15 Fit.
-z32 brakes
I'm now at 120k miles. Still have over 4mm on both the front and rear pads, and the rotors look fine. So that's at least 50k miles I'll get out of a set of OEM brakes, but I expect more like 75k. 6 speed hatchback if it makes any difference.
I can't imagine a situation where I replace them with anything other than OEM Toyota parts. They've lasted an impressive amount of time, rarely squeak, and don't make any dust.
With a 20% off coupon, it was only $40 more than the other shop, and I got OEM parts. That was almost 3 years ago, and the brakes are still stopping smooth.
I purchase a 2022 highlander brand new. Recently it hit 50k miles. Purchased pads... Only assumed they needed them. Broke everything down to find they weren't even at 50%. Replaced them anyway - but they could have easily gone 80-100k depending on how I drove.
I have a 2020 Rogue SV and it\u2019s pushing 98000. Great car in the Vermont winters , but I\u2019m on my 3rd set of breaks.
However, on Toyotas, I always pay the extra money for genuine Toyota discs and pads. They’re still made in Japan or the US. Whereas all of the aftermarket options for Toyotas are Chinese-made junk. And since those aftermarket ones wear out so fast, they end up being the more expensive option per mile vs the genuine parts.
I have a Nissan Pathfinder 2022 and have had to replace brakes twice in 2 years.
