Carquest Premium Gold brake pads are original equipment (O.E.) replacement brake pads designed for consistent, quiet and clean braking. Our brake pads are engineered by manufacturers that meet IATF 16949 certified framework, an internationally recognized proof of quality in the automotive industry. Carquest Premium Gold brake pads utilize application-specific friction formulations that provide extended pad life and cleaner wheels. These brake pads also feature OE-designed slots and chamfers for consistent performance. To prevent noise, our Carquest Premium Gold brake pads also utilize a multi-layer shim and are supplied with new brake hardware (most applications-see fitment notes). Carquest Premium Gold brake pads are the best choice when looking for brake pads that meet or exceed the OE stopping performance.

I would buy this product again
These do the job - they're brake pads. Make sure to purchase some grease as the gold kit doesn't come with it - they have small packets at register / check out that's more than enough. Brake pads are extremely easy to do, even for someone with no experience. Aside from removing your wheel, you'll have to unscrew 1-2 bolts (make sure not to do the brake line bolt or you'll have to bleed your brakes). Most cars will take a 14mm socket up front, remove the two bolts (some cars you can only remove bottom, and flip the caliper "hood" up), set the caliper hood on a box, remove old pads, put new ones in, add some grease to the outside of pads, compress caliper piston and reassemble. Very, very easy - even for someone with little to no experience. You'll need a socket wrench and socket (probably 14mm), and a c clamp or large channel locks will help to compress the caliper piston when you re-install.

Very quiet and smooth braking. Easy to install and I expect great wear life from these pads. Competitively priced with lower value semi-metallic pads.
