Get the duromax pads with the lifetime warranty from Autozone. You'll never have to pay for pads again for normal wear.

If you don't want them to screech, stick with a ceramic pad. These should be fine.

Cheapest ones with lifetime warranty preferably from AutoZone since they have a good loyalty program and you don't have to worry about saving the receipt.

Anyone have experience with Wagner brake pads? Specfically n the context of a Firestone brake pads replacement and rotor resurfacing. $99 per axle seems like a very good deal.

why not spend an extra $20 per pad and get a ceramic that doesn't get as hot or leave you constantly dealing with dust on the rims?

Was coming in to post this. I think they have 3 different types of brake pads - personal, commercial, and, agricultural.
