Brake pads Hella Pagid or OEM Toyota

Back in December, I had discs and pads replaced all around on my 2018 Octy vRS. My local garage was happy to fit supplied parts. With the discount Halfords were running at the time, I've had Pagid discs/pads fitted. No rattles, no squeaks, and they stop me when they need to.

One thing that I am surprised by are the brakes. They're still fine at 110k, and it's not like this 4,000lb beast has EV-levels of regen.

I'm now at 120k miles. Still have over 4mm on both the front and rear pads, and the rotors look fine. So that's at least 50k miles I'll get out of a set of OEM brakes, but I expect more like 75k. 6 speed hatchback if it makes any difference.

I can't imagine a situation where I replace them with anything other than OEM Toyota parts. They've lasted an impressive amount of time, rarely squeak, and don't make any dust.

Just bought Pagid discs and pads for my Suzuki Swift. mix of main and rural roads in NW England, plenty of wet, mud and hills.

Yes, decent enough. Just changed discs and pads on my Passat and no issues.

I purchase a 2022 highlander brand new. Recently it hit 50k miles. Purchased pads... Only assumed they needed them. Broke everything down to find they weren't even at 50%. Replaced them anyway - but they could have easily gone 80-100k depending on how I drove.

Is your corolla a hybrid? The hybrids have regenerative braking that will make them last a lot longer.

I had a 2013 Prius for 9 years and never replaced the stock pads.

be mindful with those pagid pads. they’ve been making noise on a lot of cars we’ve put them on recently. massive chucks of metals in them. still stop great but may make some noise

However, on Toyotas, I always pay the extra money for genuine Toyota discs and pads. They’re still made in Japan or the US. Whereas all of the aftermarket options for Toyotas are Chinese-made junk. And since those aftermarket ones wear out so fast, they end up being the more expensive option per mile vs the genuine parts.
