OEM Honda Brake Pads

Honda Brake Pads Buying Guide

What They Do. They act as a friction-generating surface between the calipers and rotors in a Honda brake system. More specifically, they allow the calipers (to which they are mounted) to rub against the rotors in a way that creates that resistance without either of the parts getting damaged. As a result, the wheels and tires on your Honda vehicle can slow down and come to a complete stop.

How Many and What Types There are. There are four. Organic brake pads are ideal for everyday driving. They're cost-effective, they produce consistent friction with very little dust, and they don't wear down rotors as fast. Ceramic brake pads last longer. They work well in various weather, they're quieter, and the dust they make doesn't stick to wheels as easily. Metallic/semi-metallic brake pads work even better, especially at high heat. They offer a much firmer feel, and they resist brake fade. Carbon fiber brake pads deliver the best stopping power, as they're the most durable and function superiorly at the highest temperatures. Most cars, like the Honda Civic and Honda Accord, use organic or metallic/semi-metallic. However, since carbon fiber and ceramic scatter heat best, many sports cars, SUVs, and vans often use them. (Think Honda Civic Si and Type R, Honda Pilot, and Honda Odyssey, among others.)

When to Replace Them. Normally, every 40,000 or 50,000 miles, but it depends on how and where you drive. The best way to tell? Look for signs of brake problems. They include a lit brake warning light, damaged pad surfaces, whining brakes, and taking longer to stop. The symptoms of your brakes going bad, however, are vibration and grinding. They indicate irregular pad wear due to rotor warp and rotor damage in real time, respectively. The best way to figure out if brake pads are the specific cause of your problems, though? Do an inspection. If you need to buy new ones, be sure to get the genuine article.

Aftermarket brake pads, however, may not always be up to Honda specs; they may not fit or function as well as OE; and they may not give you the same peace of mind brake pads with warranty support would.
