Brake pads OEM Subaru or GALFER

For Shimano Ultegra/Dura Ace

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 threw a set of Galfer pads in mine and have been happy.

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.

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.

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

Factory brakes in my 2021 we’re pretty low quality, lasted about 3 years.

I thought the brakes sucked
