Brake pads Akebono or OEM Mercedes

Akebono Brake pads

  • Braking:
Rating 4.5

That's a great price. Akebono is one of the OE suppliers to Honda and it looks like they either forgot to add the price of the pads or just left them out on purpose which would normally add at least an extra $50. $100 or a little over is normal price per rotor so that checks out and 1.25 hours is very cheap. Most shops would be closer to 2 hours to swap all that out.

Pros: great price, Akebono OE supplier
Cons: pads price may be missing

Akebono Brake pads

Akebono are the best brakes a japanese car could get. I replaced my Civic brakes and rotors myself. Cost was around 200$ in parts from RockAuto. If it’s just one axle, I would consider ordering the parts yourself and doing to job on all tires for less. Plenty of YT videos out there. You could buy or borrow parts and do it for less. *I’m a 45 yo woman for reference.

Pros: Akebono best brakes
Vehicle: Honda Civic

Akebono Brake pads

Factory brake pads really are better but that's like the one part they seem to gouge the price on the worst, I usually try to get the closest thing to factory the aftermarket offers, you can usually get Akebono which might actually be the same as factory for quite a bit less on like Tire Rack or sometimes the local parts place will have them.

Pros: better than aftermarket
Cons: gouging the price

Las Akebono (Japon) que llevan mi Honda valen 180K y las considero caras

Si tu Cronos es automatico me fijaria de ponerle algo bueno, como siempre hacen fuerza cuando frenas en Drive, las pastillas pedorras suenan un montón. Yo tenia Cobrec y las vole a la mierda por eso, puse las OEM y chau problema. Pero me hablaron bien de las LPR y Raybestos.

Pros: OEM chau problema
Cons: pastillas pedorras suenan
Vehicle: Honda

OEM Mercedes Brake pads

My mechanic replaces them with OE Mercedes everytime my car needs new brakes. I ask him to use aftermarket and he keeps saying aftermarket pads squeak a lot. And guess what, my OE MB pads squeak like hell when I hit the brakes while reversing lol

Cons: squeak when reversing
