Brake pads GALFER or Tesla

Galfer pads and rotors. I'm 210lb and can confidently slow down with rival flat mounts and 160mm rotors

I'm at 71k on the original pads for my 2021 Model 3. I dont seem to go through pads quite as fast as some people.

Still on the originals at 110K miles on my 2016 Model S, plenty of wear left.

my 2015 Model S is still on the original brake pads, never had an issue, and I'm at like 125k miles.

Several teslas, both S and 3, and never had to replace them. I got used to one pedal driving. My 3 has almost 60k and brakes are almost new.

2014 MS P85D 102,000 miles still on factory pads and rotors.

I’m at around 104k in my 3, on original pads but had an issue with the rear clips causing some squeaks and need to replace those.

What type of maintenance do they need? Can you get parts for them (say brake pads) easily?

70,000 miles on the X because the emergency brake pad fell out. They told me to redo the whole set at $2,000 since the ebrake was out and it wasn’t covered under warranty.

I just switched from OEM (Brembo HH Sintered, I think) pads to Galfer HH Sintered pads. I forgot to scotchbrite the discs and I think I glazed everything up during bedding-in process. I used scotchbrite like mad on the discs and sanded the pads with 220 grit until they were dull like when new, but the brakes seem to have the same behavior - heavy brakes test after 10 mile bed-in ride, the brakes plateau without getting to ABS trigger unless I squeeze like a motherfucker. The previous pads I could stand up on the front wheel with one or two fingers, so I feel like I've done something wrong.
