@@AmirPomenI'm interested to know if you like the general ct pads 3 years on and what is it that has you contemplating a different pad next time?? I'm in a unique situation where I have undersize brakes and am trying to find a pad that grips really well to make up for them in case of an emergency stop or towing but want them to work good cold, I have to say pad shopping seems pretty tricky as there's so many variables between everyone experiences and trying to see where stuff is currently made there's alot more in China where quality control is most likely not the best. Amazon doesn't seem to rate anything and then ceramic joining the party too. I have some general ct coming otherwise I'll try remsa perhaps 🤞
@@ultrapepe2905 then i would say GeneralCT might be not quite suitable (when towing) The 4wd/suv series would suit better.. Or ultimate is preferred... But i dont have any experience on them such as dust and disc life... *General CT were excellent on those aspect
I need ceramic only. No metal. It damages rotor disk and create a lot of heat also damages wheel bearing due to heat. Grease gets burnt at become jelly dry
i dont know what to say, I got one set of ct pads, and probably they are too good value (too thick), my car don't have enough clearance to fit them in my caliper. I have to use half new and half old until the new pads wear out a few mm to get enough clearance
mate you simply forgot to push your brake piston back in once you took out the old pads the old pads are thinner so the piston needs to be pushed back in for the new thicker pads.
@@notax1872you can get a break calliper reset tool in most auto shops, there's a cheap and expensive version usually, you only need to cheap version of this tool.
Still don't know what the difference between GCT and Ultra Premium is :-(
it only last around 22000 Kms and dusty. I am not sure if I bought a fake bendix brake pads.
Had them on 2 car's, wont use anything else now, no dust!
"them" are which ones?

Very sorry to hear that, sounds like you worked hard for the company but is this the place?
Did they look after you?
Tendrían algun proveedor en mexico para compras al mayoreo ?
How was the comparison of brake dust level between general ct, ultimate and street performance track pad?
it wasn't a comparison, the videos aim is to help consumers pick the correct brake pad for their driving style.

Nice brake pads i have them on my camry 2007
thanks for the video that doesnt even touch on the materials used, operating temperatures or coefficients of friction
Check the website, this video is more for people like me who just want a general point of direction to go in I think...
I'm fixing my HILUX LN166R PRMDS with Bendix Metal King, it's very good in braking distance😍😎
I bought bendix brake pads and this is my 3rd set of rotor disk.
It will destroy your rotor disk easily. This pads are very hard and noisy.
How about bedix metal king ?
Bendix Metal King is available through South East Asia, in Australia & New Zealand the equivalent is Heavy Duty.
I need ceramic only. No metal. It damages rotor disk and create a lot of heat also damages wheel bearing due to heat. Grease gets burnt at become jelly dry
How to confirm original or fake
Buy from a major automotive retailer and you will not have a problem
