Brake pads Raybestos or Bendix

Like the previous comment said, akebono is their oem supplier, imo I like raybestos the best because they’re super cheap on rock auto and they produce a lot less dust if you go with ceramic pads instead of metallic

I have Raybestos Element 3 pads on 2 of our 3 cars and brake dust is next to nothing.

I recently replaced front and rear pads and rotors on my 2021 CE TURBO with Raybestos EHT3 pads and element 3 rotors (rear) and Raybestos specialty performance rotors (front). I'd highly recommend them. They stop a little better than stock and handle heat a lot better. The rotors are also fully coated and don't rust. They've been 100% quiet and feel great.

Last point since you're doing brakes, I'll plug Raybestos Element 3 pads and rotors. Installed them on my wife's car last year and I'm genuinely impressed at the braking response in her car.

I've had good luck with Raybestos element 3 pads paired with the Raybestos street performance rotors from rockauto.

I use bendix on my truck and love it. I figure if they make good pads for the big rigs I work on, why not run them on my truck?

I see no one mentioning bendix, they’re the only brand I’ve run on my 2010 Holden Colorado and work exceptionally well

The problem with Bendix pads is that they eat away the rotors too fast.

I had bendix on my cars before, the gen CT and metal king has too much metal components, hence its noisy and scratches the rotors.
