Brake pads TRW or Duralast
My last set lasted me 60k miles before I could hear it was time to change. Those were the basic ones
Pros: long lasting
Cons: noise when worn
Vehicle:
Kia Sorento
Mileage: 96560 km
Duralast gold ceramic. No issues at all
Pros: no issues
Vehicle:
Jeep Grand Cherokee
Duralast Gold pads are awesome at little to no brake dust
Pros: little to no dust, awesome
Vehicle:
Jeep Compass
The dynamic friction geocoated rotors and pads just went onto my 07 liberty and they were easy and feel great, no noise. Hopefully they will actually prevent getting as rusty as my last ones, as I live in the PNW and rust is EVERYWHERE.
Pros: easy install, feels great, no noise
I’ve always put Duralast Gold pads and rotors on my vehicle. I’ve got no complaints and they have a lifetime warranty.
Pros: lifetime warranty, no complaints
A few weeks ago I replaced the front pads and rotors on my ‘21 grand touring. I got Duralast Gold rotors and Duralast Elite brake pads from Autozone. An independent repair shop installed them. They are working fine. I decided to purchase from Autozone for the warranty, which is lifetime on the pads and 3 years on the rotors.
Pros: working fine, lifetime warranty
Vehicle:

I used Zimmerman rotors and OEM TRW pads in the back, no dust.
Pros: no dust
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
I’ve used trw and jurid pads with Zimmerman rotors and an R1 concepts kit, with their most aggressive pad compound. The TRW ceramic pads are fine, a bit noisy when cold in my experience. Jurid was the same. Zimmerman rotors warped on me in about 20k miles and the car was really only driven in the city so I, personally, wouldn’t pay the slight premium to get them.
Pros: good bite
Cons: noisy when cold, rotors warped
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 20000 km
Replaced the rears with Duralast Elites today. They are a bit louder (you can hear the pad dragging on the rotor inside the car). Maybe they will not be as loud as they break in.
Cons: bit louder
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
Same issue here. I replaced the pads twice with the same brand (Duralast Gold), and the issue is still apparent. It appears to be an issue only with the 340mm brakes for Golf Rs and Tiguans.
Cons: knocking sound, persistent issue
