Akebono have always served me well. Felt slightly better than OEM IMO. I’ve also tried EBC Greenstuff’s…brake feel was just ok and they wore very quickly (less than 20k miles).
Bought Akebono pads from Tire Rack...Took a test drive, and found the results to be excellent. Felt great, super quiet. The Akebono pads do not require any bed-in, so just drive off normally
Akebono pads and brembo rotors avail at fcp/ecs - best combination I’ve had so far and I’ve tried textar, pagid and trw, (trw is a close second but more dust than akebono)
Most Porsche enthusiasts hate the Panamera eHybrids. I have had my 2015 for 3 years and absolutely love it. Best handling 4 door you will find. Regen brakes are squishy. I tool around time on all electric and then have fun other times.
I’m currently running Akebono performance pads (yellow box) and they have been great! No noise, minimal brake dust and way better stopping power.
Akebono pads are pretty quiet and fairly clean too. They are OEM on some Mercedes. They are on my wife's 91 Cabriolet [w/Scirocco 16V F/R disc brakes]. Zimmerman rotors are pretty good. So are Textar.
I have a bunch of BMWs and swear by Zimmerman and Akebono. The akebono metallic pads don’t produce dust and they brake as well as the more expensive ones.
I love love love the Akebono ceramic pads for daily drivers. Little fading. Low (almost no) dust which keeps the wheels nice and clean.
Akebono pads if they make them for your application.
They are quiet and can tolerate cheaper chinese steel rotors.
I had Akebono pads last time out with OEM and they were great. Low dust although they wore rather quickly.
