I put stoptech pads and rotors on the back of mine, got the set for $32.38 on clearance from tirerack.com. For the fronts I run Hawk HPS 5.0 pads
I had a 2008 Ford Fusion and drove by large long distance (commuted for a while between SFO and LA).
Eventually I moved to the East Coast and needed to do mandatory car checks (started in DC). When we finally moved to NYC I was at the garage and needed to do the inspection. The guy said he cannot let me pass, because the brake pads where at the limit. I ask him to change them and mentioned that this is the first replacement of my brake pads and he was shaking his head in disbelief because I had almost exactly 100k miles on my odometer. I explained to him that almost 90% of the mileage was long distance ( minimum of 200 miles on way trips) and he still was saying “He never saw anybody having their first brake pads replaced at 100k miles”
Stoptech 309 and Endless MX72/CCRG pads. They were great for my beginner's pace on the track. Obviously once I started pushing it more, you'll find the limits of the pad.
Braking is mostly regenerative, instead of using the brake pads. Your brake pads will probably last between 100k - 200k miles.
I paid $750 for it in 2007. It had a lunar odometer (north of 400,000) and the gas gauge stopped working so you had to write the mileage on a sticky note and slap it on the dash. The seat belts were *sawed off* and all the safety features deactivated. The brakes were high-dollar Brembos and I owned it for three years as a scrap hauler and fishing access get-to-er. I sold it for... $750. To a teenager. He probably still has it. 91-95 F-150 for life. Those things were TANKS and will survive the apocalypse, same with the Chevy 1500s of the day, especially the Silverados.
I run StopTech Sport pads on my street M3 for the days I want to give demo laps to my students on days I'm instructing and don't want to do deal with the track car. They work totally fine for both.
I bought a bike off a coworker and took it in to be serviced. Turns out the bike I bought was the equivalent of a model T Ford. They didn't make the brake pads for my model any more kinda old.
Stoptech street performance. Probably worse than stock but still plenty for street/autocross and a lot less dusty
Fiesta ST brakes are terrible. Just replace the discs and pads....again....
When we bought our Ford lightening... the sales person told me with a strait face "people think that evs go through less brakes, but really its actually rhe opposite" when trying to sell me a maintenance package...
