I just had Acura give me new pads and rotors with 16k miles on my tsx. only bc there was a pulsation. On my 7th gen accord i went 42k on originals with another 20k left on the pads so i cant fugure out how you burned the pads up in 18k miles.
Brembo blanks and PBR pads are my choice. I got them for $100 shipped for my 5th gen
