Brake pads ?? Raybestoes or Bendix ??
Raybestos - Anyone try the top of the line Super stops or anyone try the Quiet Stops ?? How do you like them ?? Now much money did they cost ??
Bedix - Anyone try the top of the line Bendix pads ?? how much were they ?? do you like them ??
Im tossed up between the two ?? I bought pads from Raybestos today for 40 then returned them when I went online and saw the top grade Super Stops..I still dont know what to get
Bedix - Anyone try the top of the line Bendix pads ?? how much were they ?? do you like them ??

I had Bendix on my old max... They squealed and produced a lot of dust.. but they performed well...
Everyone says that STOCK Nissan pads are much better... they are more quiet.

Stick w/ OEM brakes
Trust me on this one. I just had my front brakes redone by the dealership due to abnormal front end noise caused by Raybestos Ceramic Pads installed at Pep Boys. The problem w/ all these so-called brake job places is that they can only guarantee replacement. Most of the products out there say that they are compatible w/ our cars. But without a hardware kit, you get what you pay for. That is, abnormal squeling or clanking sounds from your brakes.

I have the Bendix IQ pads and are happy with them. They don't dust any more that any other pads i have used, and dust MUCH less then the $teallan pads. As for noise, they are just as good as stock. Now the standard Bendix pads may be noisy, I don't know, but the IQ series are just fine to me.

too bad hawk doesnt make pads for maximas. i've owned other makes (toyotas, hondas, acuras) and i only use hawk hps pads (street compound) on those cars. a lot of other car enthusiasts swear by them!
