Brake pads Akebono or Duralast

I use ceramic Akebono pads and have noticed that my tires are much less brown and wheel less dusty than they use to be

A few weeks ago I replaced the front pads and rotors on my ‘21 grand touring. I got Duralast Gold rotors and Duralast Elite brake pads from Autozone. An independent repair shop installed them. They are working fine. I decided to purchase from Autozone for the warranty, which is lifetime on the pads and 3 years on the rotors.

I\u2019ve been using Akebono pads on my Mk4 20AE for a while and have been very happy with them. Very low dust. They don\u2019t have the initial bite of a stock pad but I\u2019ve never had an issue with the braking performance. I use them for hpde track days also. Additionally, very easy on rotors.

Slotted and drilled are nice, I own 3 9-3 Aeros v6 and is very hard do stop them, Akebono brakes and Slotted/drilled rotors are cost/effective for me. I definitely recommend it.

Changed to Centric high carbon rotors and Akebono pads no issues.

Akebono front brake pads

OEM rotors and akebono pads????

I like akebono pro act pads. Low dust, good performance

Replaced the rears with Duralast Elites today. They are a bit louder (you can hear the pad dragging on the rotor inside the car). Maybe they will not be as loud as they break in.

I recently replaced my rear brake pads with Akebono proact pads. The issue is when I go around 40 mph and break with a little force, I hear this loud noise coming from the rear. Sounds like the brake pads and trying to stop the rotor and not being successful. I never had aftermarket brakes on my car before but OEM brakes had no issues.
