If you are looking for the best brake pads and rotors that will not pulsate, last a long time and work across a vast of vehicles, I suggest you look into Perfect Stop.

I've got AutoZone's gold ceramic pads on mine right now. They are made by Bosch, I know because they drop-shipped from the Bosch factory. Grippier than OEM, quiet for daily driving and decent for spirited driving.

Pros: Grippier than OEM, quiet

Stoptech Street pads for the Akebono brakes. I've only got 16k miles on them and they still look new, despite having drilled & slotted rotors. I do heavily downshift and engine brake, which explains the lack of wear. I'd buy them again as they're quiet, but they do produce a fair amount of brake dust.

Pros: quiet, long lasting
Cons: lots of brake dust
Mileage: 16000 km

I switched from oem to EBC slotted rotors and StopTech "Street" pads about 20k miles ago. I won't be switching back. Firmer and more immediate initial bite, more consistent brake feel, and no brake fade even when carving up the canyon. This with good lifespan for the pads, zero noise, and low dust. I do have to be mindful when braking in traffic though, as the pads took about ten feet off of my 60-0 stopping distance and the performance tires a few more, and I don't want to end up wearing the vehicle behind me. I have a '16 sedan and only changed the front brakes out.

Pros: firmer bite, consistent feel, no fade
Cons: shorter stopping distance
Vehicle: Mazda 3
Mileage: 20000 km

STOPTECH Brake pads

Its funny, my close bud actually runs stop-techs, they seem to be doing him fairly well Might consider stoptech's as well for the future. Until then, I'm just going to run these EBC's down a bit more so that I don't feel like its money down the drain

Pros: doing him fairly well

Bosch Brake pads

I just replaced the pads (Bosch BE1633H) and rotors (Textar 5Q0615301G) on my MK7 R, and after torqueing everything I noticed a clunk when rolling up and down my driveway (happened only when going from forward to reverse or vice versa). I jacked the car up, took the wheels off, and checked all the bolts, everything was tight and torqued to spec. I then noticed that the brake pad itself is shifting.

Cons: clunking noise, shifting brake pads
Part number: BOSCH BE1633H
