I need to change brake pads in my 2000 civic EX. Which brake pad are good for daily drive? I don't want to spend too much money.
Where can I buy them?

thanks

 

Autozone, lifetime warrenty. You think there going bad take them back and get a new pair, its that simple.

 

don't get the lifetime pos silver or gold brake pads they are too hard, get the bendix brakes, semi organic or organic pads. They are softer so they stop quicker and don't wear out your rotors nearly as quick. I buy mine at auto zone.

Beat me to it

 

Hawk HPS, tirerack.com or discoverparts.com (discoverymotorsports.com maybe?)

 

OEM, check ebay.

i got my type-r brake pads oem, for 70 f & r

 

wagner thermo quiets. no squeal, low dust and cheap price. oriely or auto zone.

 

the cheap lifetime warrent ones from autozone warped my rotors from being crappy- plus my rotors have seen 115k with out a resfacing - need new rotors 0 if i had the money i would go oem

 

i use the wagner thrmo quiets

 

anybody have any thoughts on the Axxis ultimate pads, except for the fact the make a **** load of dust?

I had BMW couple of years ago and I use brake pads from autozone. In BMW They ware out quickly and make **** lot of brake dust. I switch to OEM and problem was gone.
So I was wondering if autozone pads do same for Honda?

They are one of the best street pads you can buy.

If you want a lower dusting pad try the carbotech bobcats. they stop even better than the ultimates.

i was just about to recommend these. I've tried these and the hawk hp+ pads, they make about the same amount of dust ( a ****-ton), but the hp+'s are pretty loud for street applications...they tend to squeak, i have them on my rear right now. I have the ultimates on my front right now and i love them.

for a daily driver just stick with autozone or oem pads. If you want a little performance than go with the ultimates

 

I've had bad luck with autozone pads making a **** load of dust on my wheels... I used them for a week and then I just went to honda and paid for the stock ones.

Don't get Hawks if you live where it gets cold....mine took forever to warm up and stopping when they are cold takes forever....once they are warmed up they rock though....I would go EBC Green Stuff....great street and auto-x pads....

 

i put OEM pads on mine

 

AEM on the front OEM on the rear!

it's a new price comparison site for performance products.

i would not get these pads...i tried them, about same stopping power as oem and a LOT of brake dust especially when they advertise as 'minimal brake dust'...I've tried these and the Axxis Ultimates are just as much, brake dust about the same amount, but they stop a LOT better.

 

can't go wrong with oem

 

Hawks HPS is good for street driving and they are cheap
