Hi,

I own 2002 nissan almera, petrol 1.5. I drive around 8000 kms per year. In last yearly checkup, I was advised to change rear wheel brakes. I visited the autoparts shop and got a quotation. The basic pads and shoes for two wheels cost 84 euros and Bosch cost 124 euros (he mentioned some TRK enabled.. not sure what was that).

My question is, what is the difference between the basic model and bosch one ? Do I see any difference in performance if I go for the cheaper one ?

Thanks in advance,
 
Amongst OEM rated pads, I find the cheaper ones just wear quicker and create more dust. Otherwise I've had no reduced performance from them. All brands are going to vary though. I remember once buying a full set of front and discs and pads for £70 delivered! They actually weren't bad either.
