Brake pads Zimmermann or Bendix

Shoot, I turned the rotors and got Bendix pads from RockAuto. Stopped great and smooth.

The pad material composite can be upgraded to extend mileage adding replacement parts like Bosch or Zimmermann (OEM suppliers) that are the same or better than stock.

I did them 6 months ago. I used import direct rotors from o Reilly. and some brake pads from NAPA I think I used Zimmerman brake pads. I have 0 problems with them and only need to do my rears in a couple of months according to the wear sensor.

I’ve been using Bendix metal king for my car, it outperforms stock pads from Toyota by a lot. For context, I’m from Sabah; under normal driving conditions and without another driver in front basically keeping their foot on the brake pedal. Our steepest mountainous road is Kimanis, gradients ranging from 10% to 25%; it handled the descend perfectly without fading as compared to stock pads. Traversing to-and-fro Kundasang was also a breeze, brakes would typically fade half-way down the mountain with minor traffic ahead. I’m looking to switch to Bendix Ultimate come time to change my brake pads. Though I have to agree with the brake dust, but if you wash your car once a week then it shouldn’t be that awful.

Zimmerman blank rotors are a good street replacement. No need to pay for drilled/slotted rotors. Personally I went with ceramic brake pads. They don’t bite quite as hard as metallic, but they still bite well, don’t make as much brake dust, and they don’t seize to my rotors after they get wet

I love all things zimmermann brakes. Not the cheapest but some of the highest quality in my opinion.

Bendix maingay talaga, mawawala iyan after two thousand kilometers, one thousand lessen na

Driving a Saga MT 2024. Switched from the stock brakepads to Bendix Metal King's. Drove up and down Genting roads quite often, but damn, the braking grips are not what was advertised, and made worse during rainy days. Luckily I drove a manual transmission saga, so I could balanced out braking hard with employing low gear, to cater to a proper sudden stop, especially going downhill, with all the speed bumps up there. And the brake dust? Lord! It's like I painted my wheels with paint, each time I got home.

Those Bendix Brake Pads have been almost doubled in price over store bought.

I switched to the supposedly equivalent Zimmerman blanks and textar pads and I didn’t like the performance so I switched back to the stock brakes.
