Brake pads Akebono or OEM Honda

I always use Akebono PROAct pads, and cheapest Centric rotors (changed with pads every time) I stop GREAT.

I replaced my pads at 70k from factory. Had ATC on the whole time and I use PROPilot Assist and Intelligent cruise control often and most of the time it's together. Very minimal pad wear after replacing. The factory ones squeaked when it was cold but would go away after some heat, I went with the Akebono ASP pads this go around and no noise at all.

I got the Zimmermann coated rotors and Akebono ceramic pads from FCP Euro. The braking power and smoothness are way better than what I had with the scrapy metal sounds before, lol.

I went from stock pads directly to Akebono ProACT. Once they bed, they will feel be the same or better than stock. Not rough, not loud. I mention the bedding wait because initially the bite wasn’t there and I was a little concerned but after the pads ate away the protective coatings on new rotors it was the same or better.

I paired centric rotors with akebono pads and they were great

I installed the ProActs on a different vehicle (wife's Lexus) and from here on out, it will be my go to pad. Just seems to stop smoother, quieter, and less dust than the OE.

I put Akebono ProAct pads & Raybestos Element 3 for rotors on my Honda. For quiet pads & rust protection. The quality to price point was my deciding factor.

If we're talking brake pads highly recommend aekobono brake pads just truly different very smooth no noise and will last easily 60,000 miles

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)

Nope, they don’t fit whatsoever. Return them. The correct pads have 2 holes on the top corners, which are for the pad retaining pins unique to the 2IS rear calipers. The 3IS went back to the standard floating caliper design, for which these pads MIGHT fit. These pads you picked up are guaranteed to not fit your 2IS.
