Rating 4.0

I recently replaced my son\u2019s pads/rotors on a 328i f30 , I used Akebono ceramic pads and Zimmermann rotors, he likes them much better than the oem because it doesn\u2019t make much brake dust your wheels stay cleaner, he didn\u2019t notice much difference in stopping distance, but doesn\u2019t track the car just normal spirited driving on streets and backroads

Pros: less brake dust, cleaner wheels
Cons: no stopping distance difference
Vehicle: BMW

I think akebono's are worth it for street/canyon although heavy so there are better options if your actually racing

Pros: good for street/canyon
Cons: heavy

Had the Hawk 5.0 HPS and they dust their ass off. Took them off and went with the ceramic Akebono and I don’t even notice a difference in pedal feedback after breaking them in. Initially they did have less stopping power but now I can’t tell. They also squealed at low speeds for some reason. (Such as pulling out of driveway)

Pros: good pedal feedback
Cons: dust, squealing

Akebono will make a slight noise when you shift from drive to reverse to drive and vice versa as they are a tad smaller than the OEM.

Cons: slight noise when shifting

I am having the same issue with my car front brakes (Akebono ceramic). They squeak when braking at very low speed to full stop. What was the resolution?

Cons: Squeaking at low speeds
