It is about time I change my pads and was wondering if anybody knew of any oem quality brake pads I can just buy from a local store (cheap). I don't race my car, just drive it daily like a granny. I have some acura oem pads on and really like the quality.

Been searching and came up with a brand called brendix, any inputs on this; or if you've tried other brands LMK

thanks

 

then why not just get OEM again? its only about $44 ish from dealer

pad's from autozone is fine, from what i heard.

edit:$46 shipped from online

 

is it? I remeber paying about 65 at the dealership. Autozone/pepboys have a few option below 30. I just like to know if they're oem quality.

 

Brendix brake pads are pretty good, I will also consider wagner brake pads, they have a built in shim that keeps them quite.

 

do anyone know where they sell brendix and wagner brake pads? anyone else use these or the cheap ones from autozone?

I've search a lot of posts on brake pads, but everyone just talk about high performance brake pads. There is no post on brake pads for us normal non racing drivers. I don't mind paying extra for quality, its just that I don't want to when I don't have to.

 

just go to one of those auto shops you see around, the small business ones. i work at one and we sell it pretty cheap too.

 

i use o'reillys lifetime warrenty pads. work great for me

 

I use my car strictly for daily driving, and I have been very happy with the ones from AutoZone. They are cheap and come with a lifetime warranty - I figured I'd give them a shot. To be honest, I haven't noticed any difference - at least the way I drive. There longevity may not be the best, but all you have to do is take them in and they hand you some new ones - and changing pads is not a big deal, so for $25 you are set for as long as you have your teg. Just my $0.02

 

Akebono ProAct are stock quality and ceramic.

 

anyone else tried these autozone pads

stores like autozone/advanced/shucks ect ect ect

sell cheap ones and premium (lifetime) pads. just get lifetimes from one of the places, they work good for daily driving if thats what your aiming for. no need to spend money on expensive pads that you have to re buy each time.

i use oreilly's premium brand (whatever it is i forgot), it was like 24 bux, and they give u new sets when it runs out. i use my car everyday, also some drag racing and back road driving. hasnt given me any problems and stops just as good as the oems.

 

i really really like Raybestos pads.. i replaced my OEM pads as well as my mothers civic with the Raybestos and they work great.. Check them out.. And i for the most part drive pretty slow, the occasional country road runs and mountain twisties and have have no problems what so ever with them
