Using akebono working fine. Only did it because I was on a budget constraint, while aftermarket perform as good, they don’t last as much.
Best Brake pads for Honda Civic
EBC greenstuff pads have always been the best option for my style of driving. They don't fade like oem pads
Akebono
Brembo factory replacement are OEM equivalent or better
I recently changed entire front end + all 4 rotors and brakes and even asked them extensively about future parts availability.

You’ll be good either way. Bosch is great
Replaced front and rear pads once. Front pads didn't need to be replaced, but I had them anyway so I swapped them out.
After bringing the knuckle back, we reinstalled the brake pads. We had a difficult time getting the pads to sit correctly, specifically with the anti-rattle clips (prongs). Eventually, they seemed to seat properly, and we reattached the pads and caliper.
Issues included brakes dying (out of brake fluid, pero may tagas din yung hydrovac)
