Do they seem to perform the same and offer the same feel while braking? How about the brake dust? I have the rears in a box in the garage, still have not picked up the fronts. I'm just about to hit 20k miles and know a pad change is in my near future. Thanks,

Eric

The brakes feel the same as OEM to me. Granted, I haven't taken it on a track or autocrossed it so we'll have to wait for some of the more adventurous drivers to let us know how they perform at the limit. Dust seems the same as well.

I got over 34k miles on the last set of pads. That's probably because I always force the tranny into the lowest gear possible whenever I'm slowing down. I know that puts more wear on the engine, but it is under warranty!

Thanks for the driving around update, the front pads are back in stock on the website listed here in the first post. I'll have a full set of these Bendix pads soon, should need them on the car soon too

New Pad Driving Impressions:they're Great

Threw front and rear on and have a couple hundred miles on them so far. Bedded them in and no issues. Same stock feel, dust, and braking power for a fraction of the price. They're even quiet under all braking conditions!!

Just called my local Advance Auto. He said they stopped carrying Bendix and that he now has Weaver which was bought out by or merged with Bendix.

Any info on this? I was looking to buy some rear pads before the Shindig!?
