I just wanted to know what all your thoughts were on cheap pads or if it is worth biting the bullet and buying decent. I would not consider cheap brakes on any road going daily commute vehicle but I only use jim for off roading and of course driving to and from.

fully agree on the main car - gets quality parts only including proper brand tyres

but the jimny rarely tops 40mph on the way to the local p&ps, and is on a trailer if its any distance
