I have Akebono ceramic pads on my Volvo, haven't really had a chance for any super spirited driving but they handle regular driving well and are fairly quite and dust free.

Pros: quiet, dust free, good for regular driving

I put Duralast gold's on all my vehicles. Got a good warranty and come with all clips and brake grease you need. They're ceramic also, so quieter and more smooth braking and significantly less brake dust. Last quite awhile (1-2 years) as long as your not heavy braking all the time. And they're not too expensive either, moderately priced. Plus a bonus, they're black and match my paint.

Pros: quiet, smooth braking, less dust

Duralast Brake pads

Autozone's Duralast Gold pads and rotors will run you about $300 for the set. They work very nicely. If you're even moderately handy or have a friend with the tools, it's less than 2 hours of work. If you have a decent setup with a lift, it's more like 45 minutes of work. $600 for labor is HIGH AF. This truck is the easiest brake job I've ever done.

Pros: work very nicely, easy brake job

Its been ~8 months and theyre still working great without much brake dust.

Pros: work great, little brake dust

I have been using Akebono pads front and rear for the last few years. They give minimal dusting nothing too crazy. The pads are decent compared to OEM

Pros: minimal dusting, decent

Like others have said, these are great if your looking for less dust, but definitely lack the bite of OE pads. They will still stop just fine, but just don’t expect that crisp initial bite you get with OE pads.

Pros: less dust
Cons: lacks bite of OE pads
Vehicle: BMW
