Dimensions in millimetres (length × width × thickness). Where a row shows more than one size, the engine or brake package changes the pad - measure your old pad or confirm your trim before buying. The final match is always by your exact vehicle on the listing.
What brakes should cost on a Hyundai Sonata
| Job, per axle | Parts (DIY) | At a shop |
|---|---|---|
| Pads only | $30-60 | $150-300 |
| Pads and rotors | $100-180 | $300-600 |
Pads alone are $30 to $60 per axle as parts, or $150 to $300 per axle at a shop. Once the rotors go too, it is $100 to $180 in parts or $300 to $600 fitted. That jump is the reason to replace pads before they are down to the backing plate - worn-out pads score the rotors, and the rotors are most of the bill.
