Brake pads Akebono or OEM Subaru

Akebono Brake pads

Akebono ProACT ceramics have been solid for me on multiple cars over the years. They're OEM supplier for a lot of manufacturers so you know they're not gonna be sketchy, and the stopping power is definitely an upgrade from stock without being overkill for daily driving

Pros: stopping power upgrade, not sketchy

Akebono ProACT or Brembo OEM ceramic pads are great for strong, reliable stopping power and low dust on a 2019 Fusion Hybrid; if the rotors are worn, replace or resurface them too.

Pros: strong, reliable stopping power
Cons: rotors may need replacement
Vehicle: Ford Fusion

Akebono Pads and Zimmerman Rotors are a popular combo. I just did them myself a few months ago coming off OEMs and stopping seems better and way less brake dust!

Pros: better stopping, less brake dust

OEM Subaru Brake pads

the rear brakes did go bad at 35,000 but Subaru said that was an issue with defective brake pads from the factory and they paid for the replacements and they have been fine ever since.

Pros: paid for replacements
Cons: defective brake pads
Mileage: 35000 km

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

I would stay away from ceramic Akebonos. Out of all ceramic pads I tried, they felt the most dangerous. They had close to zero initial bite and required three times the leg effort to brake.

Cons: zero initial bite, dangerous
