OEM vs. Aftermarket Brake Pads:

OEM Brake Pads: Designed specifically for your vehicle, ensuring compatibility, durability, and performance. They are usually more expensive.
Aftermarket Brake Pads: Can be more affordable and may offer better performance for specific driving needs e.g., high-performance pads for off-roading. However, quality can vary depending on the brand.

Do you usually opt for OEM parts, o r have you tried aftermarket options?
