Brake pads Akebono or Bendix

I have a bunch of BMWs and swear by Zimmerman and Akebono. The akebono metallic pads don’t produce dust and they brake as well as the more expensive ones.

I love love love the Akebono ceramic pads for daily drivers. Little fading. Low (almost no) dust which keeps the wheels nice and clean.

Akebono pads if they make them for your application.

They are quiet and can tolerate cheaper chinese steel rotors.

I used Akebono pads and Zimmerman rotors. At first I didn't think they had the same bite as the OEM pads. After a few hundred miles they are good.

Akebono have been better for my 6 than the OEM. OEM pads are not all the same. They may meet the same minimum spec but not all are top tier. For example the rear brake pads on my 6 OEM were great and were made by TRW. the last set of OEM rear pads were from another manufacturer and are dusty and wear fast. My recent front OEM pads are the same. I'm going back to Akebono pads when the weather is better

Akebono proact brake pads paired with centric rotors. I like the centric premium rotors since they are painted on the edges and the hub mating surface. If those are too expensive then I'd go with centric c-tek rotors.

Akebono pads are usually excellent on hondas (I think they are oem?) As far as rotors, WBR and zimmerman are great. For an economy option you could try carquest pads/rotors. No matter which you go with, make sure to break them in properly because even the best pads/rotors will pulse if improperly broken in.

Running akebono here. Quiet, good for street use, and noticeably less dust compared to oem

I replaced the brembo pads with akebono pads and it squeaked very loud and often for about 1000 miles and then it went down to squeaking much less than the stocks. I don’t really notice it often anymore.

I bought Bendix DB2315 EURO+ for my Mercedes B180 year 2012 Petrol.

Tried to change the front brake pads and they don't fit.
