I use TRW brake pads (just checked, articles are GDB3592 for front, GDB2172 for back). They make quite a lot of brake dust during spirited driving, but that’s not a big deal for me (IMO more brake dust = less wear on brake discs).
I can recommend TRW „DTEC“ pads. Almost no brake dust, no squeaking, good bite on the breaks. The only trade of is that when it’s really cold or raining and you drive on the highway for a long time, the first half of a second when you break again the performance is weak. That’s what I experienced. I never had this with the original pads in winter time or heavy rain.
happy w trw ultra
I’ve been using trw ultra no dust,no sound and they stop real quick
I went with TRW Ultra ceramic pads and Zimmerman rotors from FCP Euro for my S90. It was a big upgrade from OEM in my experience.
I have the TRW ceramic brake pads on my E92 and they are excellent.
Got TRW pads from FCP, they work really well!
They look about par for an economy, aftermarket brake pad. I use TRW on my beaters pretty often. Mine often don't come wrapped in anything other than a rubber band. They aren't OEM quality, but for 20 bucks a pair...I'll deal with it and have never had an issue.
I had to replace my Bolt's pads because of using the friction brakes so little due to one-pedal driving, they rusted out. It's actually important to make a point of using your friction brakes every now and then.
We had a red one when I was a kid. Red with black interior. We put some 90s appropriate chrome wheels on it. Tons of good memories cruising around in that thing. I thought it looked so good, but it had the smaller V6 so it was dog slow and the brakes were terrible.
