Brake pads Raybestos or OEM Hyundai

OEM Hyundai Brake pads

I have a 21' Hyundai Accent which was basically the sedan version of the Venue before the Accent got axed. I live in the NE so I've encountered plenty of road salt as well as coastal salt/driving through minor coastal flooding. My car has basically zero rust underneath. I wash it immediately (within 24 hours) of driving through coastal flooding or winter treated roads, or as soon as temps go above freezing. Shit, I've got 80k on this car on the original brake pads and there's NO rust on the rotors or calipers, which to me is an unexpected surprise for someone who drives in corrosive conditions.

Pros: no rust, original pads
Vehicle: Hyundai Accent
Mileage: 80000 km

Raybestos Brake pads

Yeah, for wipers, it's usually a gradual decline but once they start to go, it's quick; I usually look for any hazing or small spots that don't clear right away, which is a lot more obvious than trying to gauge wear on something like brake pads where you just trust a good brand like raybestos to do its job.

Pros: trust a good brand
Cons: gradual decline

OEM Hyundai Brake pads

On the other hand, all I did to it was change oil, brake pads, tires and spark plugs. Ran all the time, snow, sun, rain. Drove it everywhere. Put loads of miles on it.

Pros: ran all the time
Vehicle: Hyundai Accent

Raybestos Brake pads

This might not be a popular opinion, but I've never had any problems with my OEM pads or rotors. Truck had the original OEM pads and rotors on it when I bought it, when those wore out I put Raybestos ones on and I was definitely not impressed with their performance. I switched back to OEM and have been happy ever since.

Pros: no problems, happy with performance
Cons: not impressed with performance

Cons: vibrations after 3k miles
