I purchased Durango rotors and Wagner brakes for my 2015 cx5 back in May 2018. According to my buddy my brakes were only 50%/35%(front/back/) done. I told him to change it anyways since he pulled them apart anyways. That was around 105k. Around Jan 2020, the rear brakes were squeaking. My buddy pulled them apart, and the rear brakes were completely done. The odometer was around 190k . I replaced them with centric rotors and power stop pads. The front was not changed as it looks like 70 left.

Pros: long brake life, good performance
Cons: rear brakes squeaking
Vehicle: Mazda 5
Mileage: 190000 km

The brake rotors from the Grand Cherokee and Caprice are nearly the same measurements though so I can mix and match. The bonus is that because of the 1996 Impala SS you can get performance brake pads for the Caprice calipers.

Pros: performance brake pads available
Vehicle: Chevrolet Caprice

I’ve honestly never had a problem with Wagner. Just installed QuickStops on my wife’s Altima. They are quiet, and they bite just as hard as OEMs.

Pros: quiet, good bite

When I did my Civic, I went with Wagner Thermoquiets. But I'm not aggressive on the brakes. They're silent, and clean. They'll still cause ABS to engage if I hit the pedal hard.

Pros: silent, clean
Cons: ABS engagement under hard braking
Vehicle: Honda Civic

I now use the Wagner pads the I can get through Advance. Last set went 60K and I just replaced them before the state inspection in October. Technically they would have passed but I just changed them out just so I didn't have to worry about it for a while. For $60 for an axle set, I can't complain. Cost way less, last much longer, easy on the rotors and don't dust the hell out of the wheels. They take a bit more brake pedal pressure but that is OK because it actually helps on brake modulation.

Pros: Cost way less, last longer
Cons: more brake pedal pressure

I just put a set of Wagner on the rear of my E60. Same pad specs and a perfect fit. The car stops dead fast.

Pros: perfect fit, stops fast

I personally use Wagner Thermoquiet for my BMW because of low dust and noise-free. They are great pads.

We had a red one when I was a kid. Red with black interior. We put some 90s appropriate chrome wheels on it. Tons of good memories cruising around in that thing. I thought it looked so good, but it had the smaller V6 so it was dog slow and the brakes were terrible.

Pros: good memories cruising around
Cons: dog slow, terrible brakes
Vehicle: Chevrolet
