I replaced REAR pads and rotors myself at the end of June of 2017 when I was at 54,000 miles. I used Bendix Ceramic Pads / D1348: https://www.carid.com/bendix/cq-ceramic-rear-disc-brake-pads-mpn-d1348.html These should fit your CC as well (they fit 2.0T and VR6 )They run very clean - like no dust, like the original factory pads did (maybe cleaner). I also opted for oem style rear rotors. Nothing fancy, no slots or drilled holes. The originals didn't have these features and I found them totally serviceable without them. If you buy aftermarket standard style rotors, just be sure that they match the specs of the original factory ones. For my car, the VR6 has rear vented rotors (the 2.0T has solid unvented). I confirmed the vane count and the rotor thickness matched the originals when they were new and then made a decision. I think the rotors I got online were duralast? I can't quite recall. Anyhow, I'm sure I'll be shamed for not going to the VW parts counter for VAG branded parts. But with that said, I have over 2500 miles on since then and the car stops beautifully with zero pedal pulsation. All-in, with a tube of compatible brake grease, I think I was at about $115 in parts and 2.5 hours of my labor.

Pros: run very clean, no dust, stops beautifully
Cons: rotor brand uncertain
Mileage: 54000 km
Part number: D1348

I put some Bendix organic/ceramic pads on my S-10 way back in the day, and the dust was much more manageable. The dust is a lighter color so it's not nearly as obvious. My current car (G35 Coupe) has ceramic pads, and I can tell a big difference compared to my friends' cars. Brake dust always come back slower on my car.

Pros: manageable dust, less obvious
Vehicle: Infiniti G

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?

Pros: new pads and rotors
Cons: Duramax in the rears
Vehicle: Volkswagen

I had Bendix GCT on my cars. Lakas nya kumalmot ng rotor discs nyan that i now need to reface the discs on the yaris. Yung e90 ko is in need of refacing na din dahil sa bendix, ginagasgas nya and rotors. Also produces a lot of brake dust lalo na white wheels ko kita agad.

Cons: Damages rotors, excessive brake dust
