Brake pads Bendix or Duralast

I got about 107,000 on my 06 and haven't needed to change the rotors yet. I just use Bendix Ceramic pads front and rear, we have always used Bendix stuff and never had any issues.

X2 Decided to try a set I these after seeing your review. Identical stopping power to stock, and they are extremely low dust. No noise, they fit tight in the carrier.

I bought Duralast Gold pads which are ceramic brake pads and was surprised how well they preform. They have really good stopping power with no difference in feel between these and stock pads. But these Duralast pads have WAY less brake dust than oem. My wheels would get really bad brake dust within a day with the oem pads especially the front. But with the Duralast pads, I've gone weeks with very little brake dust at all..almost can't even notice the brake dust. I haven't tracked my car with these Duralast pads yet, but for the street...these have been preforming very well. I've had them for 5 months now and haven't noticed any noise or vibration and have worked very good in wet weather also...which we get a lot of here in Oregon. They are priced really good for how well they preform. I thought I'd put this out there since I read on another thread here about these pads being available and thought I'd try them out.

I use duralast on 3 of my cars without issue, I even use them on my vette around town. No issues whatsoever, and they're free replacement.

I put some on our family's extra car, they actually stop the car way better than I thought.

Ive put them on countless cars that just see road use(Rears on my Civic currently are Duralast). I like buying from autozone bc you can order from site to store and use retailmenot coupons to save a bunch of money.

They are good pads for daily use. I would avoid the standard Duralast and get the Duralast Golds. They are not performance brakes so don't except them to be good if you taking the car to the track often. Plus the lifetime warranty is a pretty big plus. Free pair when you need to replace them.

Yeah, I went with all new pads and rotors on all 4 corners. Bendix OEM replacements in the front and Duramax in the rears (I know I know...but I am poor ) I know some pads are better than others but beyond a certain point pads are pads are pads right?

I won't even use duralast brakes on my daily driver, let alone a 3400 pound 200 mph missile..

I put in some new rear brake pads today. The frist brakes I had were Autozone brand. Well, they went on fine on the driver side. On the passenger side It was near impossible to push the piston back far enough to get the pads on. I still needed about another 1/16th of an inch. I even bled brakes a little to make room for the piston compression. Still no luck. So I went back and bought some Bendix that were about 1/16th less in thickness. So, I put them on the passanger side. I had to wrestle with the piston again - that mofo would not budge. Finally I got it. So, I go for a drive with Albany brakes on one side and Bendix on the other. A horrible scaping erupts from the driver's side. The side that went on much easier. Visual inspection looked ok. So I took them off and they were all scraped to heck. Strange, as that was the easy side. So, I put the Bendix pads on that side and everything is fine.
