Brake pads STOPTECH or Duralast

I put some on our family's extra car, they actually stop the car way better than I thought.

Ive put them on countless cars that just see road use(Rears on my Civic currently are Duralast). I like buying from autozone bc you can order from site to store and use retailmenot coupons to save a bunch of money.

They are good pads for daily use. I would avoid the standard Duralast and get the Duralast Golds. They are not performance brakes so don't except them to be good if you taking the car to the track often. Plus the lifetime warranty is a pretty big plus. Free pair when you need to replace them.

Fine for daily driving. Have the mid-range ones on our Forester and it stops, doesn't squeal, and they've been lasting.

The brakes don't inspire confidence. I replaced mine with a stoptech setup which is overkill but the feel, modulation and overall power take away one of the stock car's biggest weaknesses IMO

After the OEM's wear I'll upgrade to Stoptech pads.

Highly recommend stoptech street performance pads edit: not if your dust averse which it seems you are

...or Stoptech Street Performance pads. Very good.

I've been thoroughly impressed with stop tech pads on OEM rotors. Definite improvement over stock while maintaining the same dust level(a lot). I would not mind doing golf r brakes or tt rs brakes up front next time around.

I've had a couple of bad experiences with Stop Tech pads ( High Performance division of Centric ). Euro made semi metallic pads are usually very good ( ATE, Brembo, Ferodo Valeo ). Bendix Titanium II pads are very good. Akebono Premium Ceramic pads are very, very good...
