Brake pads Akebono or OEM Toyota

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

Akebono Brake pads

Spend the money on the Akebono pads.\n\nI\u2019ve been around Napa an Carquest for my entire adult life and even the best from those brands DO NOT compare to the Akebono pads. You can get them from any parts retailer

Pros: superior brake pads
Cons: expensive

OEM Toyota Brake pads

Stock brake pads lasted 3 track days which is insane for £65. Ive never had such good stock pads, I nearly always upgraded them and I'd never use stock pads on track as thats mental, but these are insane.

Pros: insane durability, good performance

Akebono ceramic is the best you can get for stock applications. Very low dust and made in usa. my LX gets Akebono pro act pads.

Pros: best for stock, very low dust, made in USA

Akebono Brake pads

Pads look good but the rotors look like they have fine grooves in them. For a Honda I’d use centric rotors & akebono pads. You can’t go wrong with that combo.

Pros: good pads, great combo
Cons: rotors have fine grooves
Vehicle: Honda

I always useToyota/Honda pads. No noise, and they last longer. NAPAs best pads may or may not squeal, factory pads don't.

Pros: no noise, last longer
Cons: NAPA pads may squeal

maybe not the place but anyone have an idea as to why my newly replaced pads and rotors squeak? I got akebono ceramics paired with durago coated rotors and they stop like crazy, barely dust but they SQUEALLLLL when braking lightly and only lightly.

Pros: stop like crazy, barely dust
Cons: pads and rotors squeak
