Is there really much to be gained from the various aftermarket options? I’ve used Ferodo , Brembo, OEM (whoever that may be), etc and found very little difference between them on stock disks.

I did find Ferodo gave off slightly less dust, which was incentive enough to stick with them on a few previous cars, but I can’t say I’ve ever changed pads and thought it made a noticeable difference to braking performance.

Am I missing something?
