Bendix or Ferrodo pads???

Post by brighty »

Just need a quick answer before I go and buy somee pads in the morning...

Recommendations.... Bendix or Ferrodo???

I was leaning towards the Bendix pads but the brake shop reckons Ferrodo are better.... but that's the brand they sell, so I'm not too sure..
When in doubt..... UTE-ERIZE it!!!

ive used ferodo 2 times now on 2 different cars an neither of them fit the calliper correctly and made horrible noises. they also both suffered brake fade. every other pad ive used has been bendix and never a problem, except the hard ones eat ya rotors............. they work well tho

I had Ferodo performance pads on my old car, and the dust created by them was insane... went back to Bendix to save cleaning my mags everyday :lol: And the Bendix worked just as good if not better.

I use Bendix 4WD pads now, and am quite happy.... why not use EBC? :P :D

The EBC 6000 series 4x4 greenstuff pads are pretty bad in performance and fade. The 2000 series greenstuff pads are excellent though - but thats if there are any left in Aus, with none on the horizen.
