Brake pads OEM Subaru or Centric

My energy cost per mile is 1/5 to 1/7 of my ICE vehicle. My maintenance costs are 1/2 or less than my iCE vehicle.

I personally like Centric Posi-quiet ceramic pads or powerstop ceramics. Low dust, brake plenty fine for daily use and spirited driving.

I use my brakes sparingly when I drive and rely heavily on engine breaking in my Subaru BRZ.

TS gang here. Cost difference for the brakes was worth it.

Centric tactical police pads and wagner wave rotors. Best combo I've ever used. Used them on the race track \ud83d\udc4d

I replaced the brakes myself around 95k miles. Dealership said they were fine but I replaced them anyway.

I think the brake pedal has a good feel, but I absolutely have had an "oh shit" moment when I was cruising at 70mph and had to brake for traffic. They definitely underperform for a "sporty" car. But I wouldn't say they suck or dangerous

The car stops just fine, it just doesn’t have a great feel.

The stock brake pads leave much to be desired.

Only gripes I have about the VB are the shitty brakes.
