Are you "turning in" the caliper pistons? Using quality parts?

yeah the first parts where the pads that came with the calliper
and the seconds bads
where cheramic i spend like 60 dollars on the pads
and the second pads where lifetime semi mitalic couse i got tired of spending 60 dollars every 3 months or 4 months
so i don,t understand it
and yeah if i don,t turn in the caliper pistons the pads don,t fit so how els would i
and i yous a needle nose plier to turn it in
