Brake pads Brembo or OEM Toyota

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

Brembos are super dusty, amazing pads but they leave my alloys covered in dust within a week.

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.

They feel very similar to the original pads, so much so that I wouldn't be surprised if the original pads were supplied by Brembo on the performance pack.

They’re fantastic. Got a set when I swapped in brembos last summer. Amazing braking power and minimal fade.

Toyota hybrids have no starter, no belts, no alternator to wear out and the brake pads and disks last around 100,000 miles due to little use

4 years ago I had my daughter, before taking my 2008 Mazda 6 back to college with her, install new Brembo "OE"/standard type pad sets front and rear and new Brembo rotors in the front. The front pads and rotors were so thick that the caliper piston cups had to be ENTIRELY retracted into the pistons to fit over them. After completion of the job and the performance of the pad/rotor break-in procedure, the already capable car was turned into a braking performance monster. It was like if you depressed the brake pedal a millimeter the car would start to decelerate markedly! And rapid stops were unbelievable quick and drama free. So I absolutely recommend Brembo products (have installed Brembo pads on 2 SUVs as well) and have always been impressed with the results!!

The fronts are basic Brembo, so as long as the mech. is competent that shouldn’t be an issue.

I have a 2017 BRZ with the Performance package 34k miles. Brembo's squeal when slowing down at around 5-15mph. The dealership can't figure out why it's squealing. I found some forums where brake squeals are normal for Brembo.

Same! This was after they quoted me over the phone that it would be $800. Fuck the dealership. Try to find you a good, honest mechanic. When you do, hold on to them tight and never let go.

Ended up paying $1,600 for all 4 pads and rotors on my 2016 STI.
