I just checked my maintenance notes and for my car I bought brake pads for $18.98 for the front set. They were Wagner OEX closeout and they are still going fine at 30,000 miles.
I've used duralast (gold) brakes on every car I've owned. Never had a problem. Only issue was the tabs on a few pads have been too big and I needed to file down 1/16" or so to make them seat smoothly in the slots. Quality seems good to me.
2016 fiesta st. Duralast Gold (DG886) PADS
powerstop is good but honestly i always suggest duralast golds they're good and the warranty is good
Wagner severe duty pads also have treated me well.
I've had no problem with Wagner, Bosch, Hella/Pagid, and Brembo; Raybestos, Bendix, Beck/Arnley, Centric, etc are all solid options for a daily driver too.
My last set lasted me 60k miles before I could hear it was time to change. Those were the basic ones
Oem is expensive and are dealer items, and quality aftermarket brakes are readily available. Look for raybestos or Wagner brands for domestic vehicles, ebc for European vehicles. And there is no need for oem wear parts
They currently have sales on their duralast branded ones and even hand bundle sales. Duralast won’t be the best, but guarantee it’s better than those sawdust with grey spray can paint pads.
I had this after replacing mine with shit Wagner pads.
It never improved - had to change them out.
