Brake pads Akebono or OEM Mercedes

power stop cross drilled roters and akebono brake pads. Got rid of the brake dust with these.

I used Akebono pads and rotors. Excellent combo.

Ended up getting these and installing them over the weekend (Abkebono ASP1210A pads and Raybestos rotors). The pads are super quiet and seem to bite well. Gf reports, "Holy my brakes BRAKE!" haha. Install was easy, the pads fit perfectly and had the correct clips. The rotors seem fine quality seems about right for the price,

Akebono is just as respected and does as much OEM brakes as a company like Brembo. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them at all. Akebono is the brake supplier for companies like McLaren and many others.

Akebono pads. Less dust than the factory pads and still have great stopping power.

Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG. Nothing particularly bad but having a German for it's age, essentially a supercar, and close to 200,000km when I sold it, quite a few bits and pieces needed replacing. Mechanically the best car I ever owned though. Just hoses, sensors, bushes, brake disc's and pads that kind of thing.

I've bought brake parts on Amazon for probably a decade. Just got Akebono pads for my Type R on their a couple months ago.

For the front and rear I got Akebono ProACTs and Brembo rotors for the rear and both are wayyy better than stock in all ways. Quieter, they haven't warped, very low dust after break in compared to OEM, and they have lasted me at least 2x as long.

Go for Akebono Euro spec. I got Akebono for a BMW and it was brilliant, the Akebono ceramic for Genesis was trash.

Yeah, akes are trash when it comes to braking in heat or heat cycling and have horrible fade even with slightly aggressive driving but they really do produce nearly zero dust.
