Brake pads STOPTECH or Duralast
I put stoptech pads and rotors on the back of mine, got the set for $32.38 on clearance from tirerack.com. For the fronts I run Hawk HPS 5.0 pads
I've used duralast (gold) brakes on every car I've owned. Never had a problem. Only issue was the tabs on a few pads have been too big and I needed to file down 1/16" or so to make them seat smoothly in the slots. Quality seems good to me.
Pros: Quality seems good
Cons: tabs sometimes too big
2016 fiesta st. Duralast Gold (DG886) PADS
Vehicle:
Ford Fiesta
Part number: DG886
Stoptech 309 and Endless MX72/CCRG pads. They were great for my beginner's pace on the track. Obviously once I started pushing it more, you'll find the limits of the pad.
Pros: great for beginner's pace
Cons: limits when pushing more
powerstop is good but honestly i always suggest duralast golds they're good and the warranty is good
Pros: good warranty, good quality
I run StopTech Sport pads on my street M3 for the days I want to give demo laps to my students on days I'm instructing and don't want to do deal with the track car. They work totally fine for both.
Pros: work totally fine
Vehicle:
BMW
I'm partial to StopTech Sports
Pros: preferred choice
They currently have sales on their duralast branded ones and even hand bundle sales. Duralast won’t be the best, but guarantee it’s better than those sawdust with grey spray can paint pads.
Pros: better than sawdust pads
Cons: won't be the best
Stoptech street performance. Probably worse than stock but still plenty for street/autocross and a lot less dusty
Pros: less dusty, plenty for street
Cons: worse than stock
Vehicle:
Ford Focus
Avoid duralast cause their pads don’t have good bite or good overall braking power. And sometimes they don’t fit.
Cons: no good bite, bad power
