So I need to replace pads on my commuting bike and am taking Shimano j02a out - any reason to look at any alternatives? I don't do much maintenance these days so wonder if metal would last longer, but am also fed up with noise....

I switched to swiss stop but that's not saving any money or increasing pad life.

Current version is J05a which are supposedly longer lasting than the longer lasting j03a you skipped, you can get the K05s-rx if you don't need fins, which you probably don't fit commuting.
