Ok ba bendix brakes

Yung OEM pads ng Kia Besta dati naubos ko within one year. Magmula noon hindi na ako gumamit ng OEM Kia pads. They suck!

Bendix ok na brand iyan. They supply OEM pads to a lot of automobile manufacturers.

chip::: bendix pads are a-ok as long as you get ORIG bendix. Ang hirap sa panahon ngayon, pati replacement parts ang daming peke! Ang ganda pa nag pagkaka-imitate. You'd better be careful about where and what you buy.

IMHO, get the replacement pads. Even if the OEMs last a bit longer, imagine, nakapag-palit ka ng mga 3 replacements for the price (more or less)

pad life depends on driving style. i used up my oem mitsu pads in less than 2 years, even managed to damage the rotor because it got scored =)

i know of some people who go through aftermarket pads in a matter of months.

The metallic pads of Bendix definitely go through rotors, but that is relative compared to other high-end pads from WINMAX, Project U, ENDLESS, Ferodo and Pagid.

Fake / really cheap pads glaze when subjected to hard use i.e. they lose their friction coefficient when subjected to high temperatures. Very dangerous when running fast.

Hi Chip. Napalitan mo na ba brake pads mo? IMHO, oks na oks ang Bendix pads. Had it own my Corolla now for 3 years (4 pa nga ata eh). Di pa naman siya kelangan palitan (papalinis ko nga lang muna). 8)

I have been using Bendix Metal Kings for quite a while na. They grip very well but they will wear out your rotors a bit faster than stock though. Price-wise, they cost just as much as OEM brake pads. :D
