Brake pads DIXCEL or OEM KIA

I am driving a 2012 Kia rio hatchback daily. Over the period I did regular maintenance such as oil changes and some minor fluid changes. Changed tires twice and replaced front suspension parts and break pads once over 13 years of ownership.

It’s got 102,700kms on the clock and owned it since new. I’m still on my first set of brake pads.

Dixcel M-Type are the least dusty street pad I've ever used. A little pricey and straight from Japan, but they aren't kidding when they advertise "ultra low dust". Have about 1500 miles on them so far and they're great on the street and for the occasional togue/mountain days.

Dump the OEM pads. I went Dixcel in my M3 and the thing stops better and there’s so much less dust. Traded off is squeal at higher brake temps.

I have always ran DIXCEL Z on all my cars. Extremely quiet once you bed them in and has a temp range of 0-850°C with a friction coefficient of 0.67. They're just a bit dusty.

I changed my wife's KIA Soul pads at 60k miles. Used OEM pads. Checked a month or two ago and they were still halfway through. She is at 200k miles.

Lastly, I had the well-known brake pad deposit problem on the rotors, which over time (about 5-6k miles for me) would cause the steering wheel and car to shake a bit when breaking, similar to the feeling you get when the rotors are warped. I had the rotors cut once, then all four rotors and pads replaced, and then the front rotors were replaced again. As many other Stinger owners online have said, once they replaced the stock rotors and pads with a good set of aftermarket rotors and pads, or some even just machining their stock rotors and getting new aftermarket pads, that seems to have solved the issue for them.

The rotors/brake pads are notoriously bad. The oem pads leave uneven deposits on the rotor. Causes shaking while braking. Ive replaced rotors twice. Got better pads and drilled and slotted rotors. No issues since.

Junk. Brakes are too small. Have to replace quickly. Plastic shit interior.

Factory tires are garbage, but good all seasons and it gets around in the snow fairly well. My rear brake pad that had little wear, fell apart while driving in the mountains around the same time ( not covered ), I have never seen or heard of this happening before here or on other vehicles.
