Review on 🔒 Wagner QuickStop ZD924 Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Set: Optimal Stopping Power for Enhanced Safety by Ben Duncan

This is the third set of pads this 2005 Sonata has seen front on. The factory pads wore out at 192,000 miles, then the cheap T replacements (cheapest available in Autozone) wore out at 36,000 miles. The rims are still not warped or worn enough to need replacing, although several tire shops try to scare me with new rims. I use measurements and factory specs to determine rotor wear, not fear and guesswork. Whenever a brake shop tells you to replace your rotors (provided they aren't warped, which you'll feel every time you step on the brakes), just ask them for the factory thickness specification and your rotors' dimensions. If they can't answer you, go. These pads are ceramic, have lots of meat, fit perfectly, and cost about what I paid for the previous set. I assume they will last much longer. If they're worn out, I'll probably need new rotors up front. Driven 2000 km after replacing the brakes, no obvious wear. The previous set began to shrink very quickly.
