My Metal Matrix pads sound like crap and I need to do a brake overhaul very soon. One of my coworkers owns a modded Accord and he says he lives by the Bendix pads. Anyone with any experience with them?

 

I had them on both my civic and my talon, never had any problems with them.

 

Why does "Bendix pads" make me think some kind of first aid bandage?

 

they are a great quality pad but i have heard that they are a bit noisy even with the blue anti squeal on them. i work at a parts store so everyone always comes back and gives me their impressions. im about to change mine and im either going with them or the performance friction pads from autozone.

 

had em on my Max and they were fine. Bendix makes pretty good stuff.

 

I have had mine on for about 2 months minimal dust and they are quiet I am very happy with them.

 

Thanks for the replies.

 

I ran Bendix Titatnium Metallic pads (www.olybrake.com) for a couple of years before I stitched to Porterfield R4S's. The Bendix pads are very close in performance to the Porterfields in both fade resistance and stopping power and they are 1/2 the cost.

 

Thanks. I just ordered OEM Nissan pads and hardware for the rears and I'll go with these pads for the fronts.

 

I had Bendix pads on my other max, they kind of made more dust then the stock pads, but performance wise i didn't really notice much of a difference...

I'm going to need new pads for my car very soon, I think i'll just go with OEM ones, people say they are actually very good.

 

My issue is quietness. I'm going to get more of the squeal stop too and see what happens. The hardware might make the difference tho.

 

Deezo, I used to work for Trak Auto and sold Bendix pads. I decided to try a pair myself to see if they are any good. I only have good things to say about them. I haven't experienced any noise whatsoever, and minimal brake fade or dust. I think they are great pads for the money. I used the Titanium Metallic pads.

 

my dad used to work for them in the 70s I say they are good pads they used to be on a Camry i drove
