Brake pads Brembo or Duralast

Duralast Brake pads

I had warp issues with my 2010 Sport MT until I bought these pads and rotors from AutoZone: Duralast Elite pads DE1394 and Duralast Gold rotor 3295DG. This was two years ago and parts were $160 and labor was $80/hour (cheap around here...Philly) for a total around $300.

Pros: solved warp issues
Vehicle: Honda Fit
Part number: DE1394, 3295DG

Brembo Brake pads

I'm in the UK and just got a good deal on Brembo disks and pads which I think are pretty good. Definitely avoid own brand stuff from parts stores. The Honda disks and pads are really good but a lot more than the Brembos cost. I also got a remanufactured genuine Nissin caliper which was remanufactured by Bendix for less than 1/3 cost of a new one.

Pros: good deal, pretty good

  • Braking:
Rating 4.5

I use brembo pads from ecstuning.com , dont buy parts on amazon or from china when you have a much better source available. I have ECS's own 2 piece rotors on front and brembo rotors on rear, my braking is really powerful and has lasted a long time despite what people say about ceramic pads and drilled/slotted rotors

Pros: powerful braking, long lasting
Cons: avoid Amazon/China
Vehicle: Volkswagen

Duralast Brake pads

I'm only now replacing the pads & rotors *for the first time* during my ownership. The rotors won't pass inspection, but I'm shocked to find that the pads still have 7/32"-8/32" left. As it turns out, I've been running Duralast Gold rotors & Duralast Elite pads the entire time.

That's a phenomenal track record for the amount of "spirited" road I put past this car.

Pros: long lasting, phenomenal track record
Cons: rotors won't pass inspection
Vehicle: Ford Taurus
Mileage: 130000 km

after testing fancy slotted EBC brakes with greenstuff pads

i decided to just get something more like OEM and got myself a set of brembo pads and max line rotors, perfect for me.

Pros: perfect for daily driving

Brembo Brake pads

All 135i have brembo supplied oem brakes. They sure do look great and have 6 pistons up front. But, the functionality of said brakes are not more special than what BMW offers for the 335i and Z4 of the same generation.

Pros: look great, 6 pistons
Cons: functionality not special
Vehicle: BMW

Duralast Brake pads

Oriellys generally carries good discount auto parts like wix, wearever brake pads. Buy duralast break pads and watch a hour and half job turn into a all day cussathon. One time before I knew better I forced a set on thinking "well that's how they came must be oem fit" they jammed and warped the rotor in 2 months. Replaced them again dads watching me struggle and cussing the world going for a hammer. Dad " WTH do you need a hammer for? Let me see them. He inspected them and came to the conclusion they were sloppily made. The slide ears were chunky globs of material that were slightly oversized and rounded instead of being straight contact surfaces. Only after carefully taking a dremel to them did they fit correctly.

Pros: good discount auto parts
Cons: jammed, warped rotor
