Best Disc pads for Yaris 2007?
Hey guys, it's time that I change my disc pads of my Yaris 2007 Sedan. I've been looking around and there are many different companies selling their stuff. I wanted to ask that what's the best tried and tested brake pad for this car and also for the best price.
Also, is hardex brakes any good? |

Hawk is the best bang for the buck, and a mild upgrade from stock. Unless you race, you probably don't need any more pad than that.,

I had good success on Autozone's Duralast CMAX brakes. Ceramic brakes with lifetime warranty. Quiet brakes and very grippy.
If Autozone stuff is not your deal, I heard great reviews from EBC Green stuff. Is this your first brake change ever since the car was new? How many miles have you gone? |

i've tried bendix and they're as good as (if not better than) stock. Just be sure to use only the standard ones and not the metal kings or something.
ebc greens give off a lot of brake dust from experience. |

Thanks for the reply guys, I'm not sure what brakes are in right now as I bought this car a year back, so this would pretty much be my first pad change.
I'll certainly check out Autozones Duralast CMAX brakes, but for now I actually ordered TRW brakes that are supposed to be made in germany and have part no. that fit BMW's. Do you think that TRW brakes are any good? |
