Advics yellow box brake pads or otherwise known as Advics brake star brand category is not a good aftermarket brake pad, test were shown that although it has decent stopping power it will harm your rotors and will quicken pace of rotor wear.
The reason why Advics can sell at below Bendix price is that because its premium category had failed to sell in the market, so Aisin decided to create another category of brake pads like what you bought which is Advics "Brake Star" which is meant to cater to lower end mass market, that Advics Brake Star product is not made by Aisin or Advics themselves it is an outsourced rebadge and repackaged Advics brake pads made by other companies in Thailand and etc... just like Aisin's other aftermarket products like water pump, wheel cylinder, clutch master cylinder and etc... which are majority outsourced from China companies then rebranded to the Aisin brand with lower specifications compared with Genuine parts or OEM brands.
Advics has actually 4 types of brake pads category
The yellow colored box known as Brake Star is meant for the lowest market which is mostly looking after the price. This replaced the premium spec pads that was previously offered by Advics.
The blue colored box known as the Premium Spec is meant for the mid to mid-high market but failed in the aftermarket that is why they gave up on this category.
