For street driving Bendix Ultimate are not the go. They tend to be harsh on rotors under light braking. They are a pad that works best with a fair amount of force.

Thoughts on the pads?
I have used them since 2009 on various models of Holdens, VY V8, VZ Adventra V8 and now VFs. They worked really well for street use, havent used on track. Don't dust much and give good bite even when cold. I rate them great for the price, which is very low.
Edit - even my wife noticed the difference in the Adventra pulling up faster with the same effort, stopped her driving into the back of a ute. And she does not have a great appreciation of how things work or why the right pads can make such a difference. These had been changed from Bendix Ultimate pads, which required too much pedal pressure for her to brake effectively.
