Rating 4.0

I got the Bosche pads. I think they were in a higher category than daily but the front+back together ended up being cheaper then other brands I was looking at. Just make sure you get ones clearly labeled front or back, and Japan built.

Pros: cheaper than other brands

For the front and rear I got Akebono ProACTs and Brembo rotors for the rear and both are wayyy better than stock in all ways. Quieter, they haven't warped, very low dust after break in compared to OEM, and they have lasted me at least 2x as long.

Pros: quiet, long lasting, low dust
Vehicle: Mazda 3

Akebono pads are awesome. I used to be big on centric rotors but they have change and the quality is not there anymore.

Pros: awesome pads
Cons: centric rotors changed quality

About a year ago I bought some Akebono ceramic brake pads for my 2016 and they have given me nothing but grief, notably the fronts whose retainer clips just straight up didn't fit into my caliper so I needed to reuse the stock ones and I also had to grind down the pad ears to fit properly. The fronts were particularly bad (part no. ACT1539).

Cons: poor fitment, needed grinding
Part number: ACT1539
