Brake pads TRW or OEM KIA
I changed my wife's KIA Soul pads at 60k miles. Used OEM pads. Checked a month or two ago and they were still halfway through. She is at 200k miles.
Pros: long lasting
Vehicle:
Kia Soul
Mileage: 60000 km
Io ho messo le pastiglie TRW Dtec Cotec al posteriore e mi trovo bene le metterò anche davanti appena posso , me ne hanno parlato bene anche per quanto riguarda polveri e residui
Pros: good performance, low dust
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Gol
I would recommend the TRW ultra pads from the official ZF store on eBay. $50 total for front and rear. They’re a tier 1 oem supplier, and the ultra line is their premium aftermarket offering. Similar to akebono and the pro act line which isn’t available for the 4th gen. The solid Bosch rotors would be a good choice. Centric as well.
Pros: premium aftermarket, good choice

I upgraded my brakes. I went with TRW ultra ceramic pads, Zimmermann front rotors, brembo rear rotors, and it was definitely a big upgrade. The brakes no longer feel spongy, much better overall feel, and less brake dust.
Pros: better feel, less dust
Cons: spongy brakes
I have a 2015 Kia Soul I bought new. In over 9 years, not a single thing has gone wrong with it - no repairs of any kind. Just oil, brakes and tires.
Pros: no repairs of any kind
Vehicle:
Kia Soul
I didn't touch the calipers, I thought the calipers were ATE, but could be TRW. I only changed out rears at this time, fronts are still the same. The pads are TRW ceramic something or others that came with zimmerman rotors in the cheapish FCP kit.

I like the stock TRW performance pack pads on Brembo rotors. Stock PP brakes are more than good enough for a daily driver that gets occasional spirited driving. I also got 65,000 miles on the original set, which is a bonus
Pros: long life, good performance
Mileage: 65000 km
TRW Ceramic Pads: Good for city driving, almost not dust, would not recommend for any track
Pros: Good for city driving
Cons: not recommend for track
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
2x som menil brzdy, oba razy za cca €400.
Pros: brzdy menené
Cons: vysoká cena
Vehicle:
Kia Ceed
Mileage: 160000 km
Junk. Brakes are too small. Have to replace quickly. Plastic shit interior.
Cons: brakes too small, plastic interior
Vehicle:
Kia Sorento
