Brake pads OEM Subaru or DIXCEL

BRZ is roomier, neutral steering and has the best feel brakes of any car that I’ve owned including the S2k.

better steering, better brakes

I went 87k on oe brakes.

125K on a 2018. Factory pads and rotors. All even wear and still far from the squealer tabs.

2021 with 87k miles. I'll probably need to change the pads in the next 15k-20k miles.

I personally don’t like the way my wrx brakes. That’s just my personal preference. But yes the car brakes just fine for every day driving and isn’t a problem.

I didnt care for the feel of the pedal. Actual performance of the brakes is fine.

I thought the brakes sucked

I still think the stock breaks on my 22VB needed more bite. They weren’t giving me the performance I wanted. My stock brakes didn’t give me that confidence. In the moments where I had to slam on the breaks, I still stopped safely, but it was a brown flag moment. They worked, but they didn’t inspire confidence. Additionally, I had issues with heat. Driving down the a mountain on a hot day (101°F), I needed to pull over and sit because my brakes were fading and my fluids boiling. Yes, the stock brakes will stop you. But I couldn’t trust them to stop me every time.

Stock pads are ass and spongy.
