Brake pads Akebono or OEM Subaru
We have a 2019 Crosstrek Limited with Eyesight and no sunroof that my fianc\u00e9 bought new and now has ~78k miles on it. Zero mechanical issues, did the brakes at around 75k miles, and did have the head unit die earlier this year, which was not fun (Subaru of America thankfully warrantied the unit after reaching out to them). Interior wears pretty well considering she doesn't take care of the car much and she often takes our 2 large dogs around in it. For the money, I think they are hard to beat, even with the CVT.
Akebono Ceramic Pads are the default OEM+ option.
Get the best ones out there which is OEM they gave my 15es250 the best miles before replacement which is 125k
You are saving some $$ doing a DIY job...so spend an extra bucks and get the OEM parts or better which would be akebono proact(brake pads around 100$) and advics high carbon rotors(220$) which again is the oem rotors your lexus had.
I use ceramic Akebono pads and have noticed that my tires are much less brown and wheel less dusty than they use to be
I\u2019ve been using Akebono pads on my Mk4 20AE for a while and have been very happy with them. Very low dust. They don\u2019t have the initial bite of a stock pad but I\u2019ve never had an issue with the braking performance. I use them for hpde track days also. Additionally, very easy on rotors.
Slotted and drilled are nice, I own 3 9-3 Aeros v6 and is very hard do stop them, Akebono brakes and Slotted/drilled rotors are cost/effective for me. I definitely recommend it.
Changed to Centric high carbon rotors and Akebono pads no issues.
Akebono front brake pads
Just bought akebono for my fortuner will update you once napakabit ko na.
The base model brakes on the 2022 WRX are the least confidence inspiring brakes I’ve ever encountered.
