Akebono pads with Zimmerman rotors is the absolute best combo out there. They are quiet with good progressive pedal feel and low dust.
I recall Honda uses Akebono as the maker for their OEM brake pads and from my experience with multiple Honda cars, the brake pads work well.
I upgraded to the akebono pads, and blank rotors. I have been satisfied, and would recommend this combination
You also absolutely can not go wrong with Akebono, that is also top quality stuff.
I have Akebono ceramic euro pads on my S-Class and absolutely love them. They last, great stopping power, and literally no dust!
Example: Akebono makes Hondas brake pads, buying the OE set is around $145, straight from akebono is around $60.
I had her order Advics rotors and Akebono ceramic pads and no issues since.
Akebono ceramic pads. Last forever. Zero squeak. Very low dust. Not expensive.
I replaced mine with Akebono ceramic pads, i paid just under $600 for all four corners, parts and labor (i replaced mine at 9k miles).
Depends on what you mean by 'best'. I own a repair shop, and have had the opposite experience with Akebono. IMO, they're junk. They don't stop worth a damn.
