Yeah they are ferodo zero's.  They wear quick and put black sh.t over your
mag wheels.  I replaced them after three months as I dont like cleaning the
mags every week.  But I guess you get what you pay for.

Last brake pads I purchased for my XE, Super cheap had 3 different brands
available. Bosch,  Ferodo and some super cheapo pads (3 letter name from
memory - ABC??). I bought the cheapies for about $20 or so. I found them
honestly quite terrible, but given the kind of driving the XE does, they are
adequate (driving to from work and that's it). Don't expect performance
braking from a brake pad that costs you $20. It is a 'you get what you paid
for situtation'. If you are into 'spirited' driving as such I'd suggest
forking out a little more for pads.
