Front Pads...Autozone?

Just curious if anyone on here uses brake pads from autozone. I need to do my pads pretty soon and I usually like to go with lifetime warranty pads. The only place over here that offers lifetime warranty's on pads is autozone. They have 3 different kinds. The cheapest they have are semi mets, then they have duaralast gold and then top of the line Duralast C-Max. Any opinions? 2.2L LT Coupe BTW.

i ran napa pads for going on 2 years now.. they are fine. the only thing i seem to having issues with now is their rotors cuz im pushing them probably a lil harder than they were intended to be.. but hey.. $80 total for everything was a good deal at the time. i say just get them at autozone

I use the Duralast C-Max on the front, and Gold on the rear. Did AWESOME at a track day, and lasted about 40k miles after that. I put the same setup on my wife's A6, and had similar results. I'll be using them until I end up somehow with a name brand brake system.
