Rating 4.0

I run Akebono pads on my Lexus/Toyota cars. They are ceramic, so there may be less bite than a semi-metallic pad, but they are very low dust and last long.

Pros: very low dust, last long
Cons: less bite
Vehicle: Toyota

Bosch rotors with akebono pads. Works great on my 2nd gen. Seen this pair on the tundra forum raved about. The pads especially. I daily my truck and don't notice brake noises. Live in the rust belt and had to beat the pads out of the calipers when I did it..

Pros: works great, no brake noises

Akebono Brake pads

I've had good luck with Akebono ceramic pads and whatever rotors RockAuto has on sale that aren't the cheapest option. Stay away from those super budget pads from unknown brands - learned that lesson the hard way when they turned to dust after like 6 months

Pros: good luck with Akebono
Cons: pads turned to dust

Akebono makes great pads you really don't need factory parts when it comes to brakes. Honda factory rotors are notoriously prone to warping for innumerable reasons.

Pros: great pads
Cons: rotors prone to warping
Vehicle: Honda

Just put Zimmerman rotors and the Hawk Street pads on my non- PP gti. These pads unfortunately shift up and down and make a loud “clank” when braking on transition from 1st to reverse. They still bite great

Pros: bite great
Cons: loud clank, pads shift
Vehicle: Volkswagen
