vs
Brake pads WAGNER or OEM Hyundai
Reviews
I’ve honestly never had a problem with Wagner. Just installed QuickStops on my wife’s Altima. They are quiet, and they bite just as hard as OEMs.
Pros: quiet, good bite
When I did my Civic, I went with Wagner Thermoquiets. But I'm not aggressive on the brakes. They're silent, and clean. They'll still cause ABS to engage if I hit the pedal hard.
Pros: silent, clean
Cons: ABS engagement under hard braking
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
I now use the Wagner pads the I can get through Advance. Last set went 60K and I just replaced them before the state inspection in October. Technically they would have passed but I just changed them out just so I didn't have to worry about it for a while. For $60 for an axle set, I can't complain. Cost way less, last much longer, easy on the rotors and don't dust the hell out of the wheels. They take a bit more brake pedal pressure but that is OK because it actually helps on brake modulation.
Pros: Cost way less, last longer
Cons: more brake pedal pressure

I just put a set of Wagner on the rear of my E60. Same pad specs and a perfect fit. The car stops dead fast.
Pros: perfect fit, stops fast

BMW
I personally use Wagner Thermoquiet for my BMW because of low dust and noise-free. They are great pads.
Pros: low dust, noise-free

According to Rockauto, Wagner ThermoQuiet parts are available for that car. I would just get those - I've used them on everything I've owned for the past 10 years or so with good results.
Pros: good results, used for years
I am very pleased with the brake system end results. ALL new rubber in the whole system: New calipers, new wheel cylinders, new master cylinder and all four new rubber hoses.
Pros: new rubber, solid pedal

Audi

Ok, so, at a particular location I worked at we used Wagner Thermoquiets. Decent pads, but this particular location seemed to get the worst quality pads ever. The only way we could keep the customer from coming back was to make sure everything was well lubricated, and we also used some sort of orange goop to stick the brake pads to the calipers. Then we took it out for a break-in session, I believe it was 5 stops from 30mph, gently using the brakes, then another 5 with moderate brake pressure. And if the customer was too hard on the brakes it might still come back.
Pros: decent pads
Cons: worst quality pads
I haven't had much luck with durability on Wagner brake pads on any of my cars, though I've not used these on the Passat.
Cons: poor durability
