Would Goldwagen be the best place for Honda CR-V front brake pads?
Which brand would you guys recommend?
there are like 5 or 6 generations of CRV, they dont all use the same pads, try Metelli @ Masterparts, they manufacture their own, its not a brand like safeline or whatever that buys from a factory that 500 other brake pad brands buy from and just box it to a brand, yes.... that's how it works with car part brands if the brand isn't manufacturing for themselvesWould Goldwagen be the best place for Honda CR-V front brake pads?

please share whatever you are smokingBrembo is great, but you wont need it
Ferodo is good. I would go for them.
The problem with Brembo is that if you stop last minute its great as it stops however.....
Cars behind you may not stop as fast, and your boot will be pancaked. Saw that way too often.
So stock standard brakes will do.
correct, clean what needs to be cleaned, replace disk if under spec,I have had various makes, from cheaper to expensive brake pads. The only time brakes start squealing, is when the pads wear down to the bolt like wear indicator which is designed to squeall. Properly installed brakes dont squeall.
For your car to keep its value, keep it at original spec. Going for fancier items, while your car depreciates will actually just make you loose more.
Unless its a Honda Jazz. They actually gain value ironically.
I actually used the Metelli brand for my Honda. Dont recall having any issue, granted this was in 2014 or 2015 and I have replaced it since.there are like 5 or 6 generations of CRV, they dont all use the same pads, try Metelli @ Masterparts, they manufacture their own, its not a brand like safeline or whatever that buys from a factory that 500 other brake pad brands buy from and just box it to a brand, yes.... that's how it works with car part brands if the brand isn't manufacturing for themselves
also: GW don't have a massive range outside of VW/Audi

Apparently Metelli is an Italian manufacturer that supplies OEM parts worldwide. Also switched over to Metelli a few years ago after using Ferodos for years. Metelli brake pads have been great and cheaper than Ferodos. No screeching or excessive dust. Recently also tried Stone brake pads from Masterparts as they did not have Metellis in stock. Been great so far with no screeching or excessive dust.there are like 5 or 6 generations of CRV, they dont all use the same pads, try Metelli @ Masterparts, they manufacture their own, its not a brand like safeline or whatever that buys from a factory that 500 other brake pad brands buy from and just box it to a brand, yes.... that's how it works with car part brands if the brand isn't manufacturing for themselves
