That's the ONLY good thing I will say about them.

Everything else about them, I hate.

I'm with you. They're like trying to stop on bars of soap.


I haven't tried any aftermarket pads yet, but my OEM ceramic pads are amazing. After 30000 miles they still have 0.8 mm depth and work nicely, I've never had any problems with stopping

Actually I found wagner ThermoQuiet for my application
$62 after tax delivered for both axles, not bad at all and seems like Bitog community likes Wagner

Bought in 08/2016 30k miles so far
The car doesn't need pads right now, still 0.8 mm left on them.
I plan to change pads in a year from now, decided to start stocking now

Found ceramic and hybrid pads, but only the front ones. Which one would you go with? The price difference is $4

The hybrid pads. They are listed under the Premium section (Economy, Daily Driver, Premium). For the rear, get Wagner Thermoquiet.

Actually I just ordered both front and rear Raybestos pad sets as the rear became available - only $56.84 after tax and shipping, that's a deal!

There are different grades of ceramic pads. After my experience with the high priced ones I go the cheaper route. I buy Autozone because of the lifetime warranty.

Wearever, BrakeBest, Duralast and Bendix are all made by the same company - MAT Roulunds in India or China. I tend to stay away from those.
