Brake pads TRW or OEM Toyota

One of my inner rear pads went at 110k. FCP euro has a full brake kit front and rear rotors with Zimmerman and TRW ceramic pads for around $400. It's OEM style replacement, so no real upgrade performance to speak but it's a daily not a track car and the price was right.

Zimmerman blank rotors + TRW pads. I just did my first brake change and these are silent and cost less than $400 for rotors/pads/bolts/grease.

I swapped my stocks for TRW/Zimmerman pad/rotors and so far they feel good.

2012 Prius, 202k miles, still with original brakes.

2017 Prius Prime, 110k miles, still with original brakes.

Both inspected annually by our mechanic. Both still going strong.

based on the inputs so far, I have decided to take the Sequoia (price: around $5000, he takes care of the brake pads and rotors.

I have Akebono on my 330 and TRW Ultra TXC1171 on my 328, I have to say the TRWs have excellent bite and the brake dust is minimal as well.

I would recommend getting TRW Ceramics if you're going to change them. Affordable, good stopping power, low dust, quiet

Just did the rear brakes on my 2015 335i

There is a lot of markup on those parts. A full set of TRW pads for an S60 can be had for a little over $200 inc GST from Repco and Repco ain't cheap.

However, on Toyotas, I always pay the extra money for genuine Toyota discs and pads. They’re still made in Japan or the US. Whereas all of the aftermarket options for Toyotas are Chinese-made junk. And since those aftermarket ones wear out so fast, they end up being the more expensive option per mile vs the genuine parts.
