Owner reviews for brake pads

Bumalik ako sa stock orig pero kung namamahalan ka sa orig buy akebono.

I am driving a 2012 Kia rio hatchback daily. Over the period I did regular maintenance such as oil changes and some minor fluid changes. Changed tires twice and replaced front suspension parts and break pads once over 13 years of ownership.

I have Nissin brand brake pads for my Honda City, which I think yun din ung OEM kasi napansin ko dun sa brake caliper ko na Nissin din ung nakalagay. Tahimik and stops on a dime, periodic kong chinecheck ung rotors at kapal ng brake pads, and they're both in good condition, even after two years (I resurfaced my rotors nung nagpalit ako ng pads).

gamit ko now brembo, goods sya, may kasama din shims

I know funds are low, but get a quality pad. I prefer Bosch Quiet-cast. Long lasting, no squeak/noise/vibration.

I did my 2016 Expedition pads and rotors 2-3 years ago. Great brakes from PowerStop-have them on 2 vehicles. Nice kits.

R1 Concepts Track Pads. I used them for my daily and occasional track. I am too lazy to swap the pads. Hella dusty tho.

Hawk 5.0 can be *okay* if you aren't pushing to hard yet but theyre going to be a limitation.

Only gripes I have about the VB are the shitty brakes.

New Beetles are definitely underrated. They do have some weak points though. The Turbo S brakes are barely adequate for touge.
