Brake pads Akebono or POWER STOP
I just went to rockauto got 4 brembo rotors and 4 powerstop z26 pads, plus 2 sensors with the dealership installing it for about $1500.
Power stop brakes z36 towing brakes. Stops my fully armored truck with drawers pretty well
I have always gone with Akebono pads and centric rotors. It's a great combo.
I've used Akebono Euro Ceramic pads on my MK7.5 R and S5 Sportback and they were great and basically no dust.
Really, stock everything is fine for your needs, second the advice on slotted/drilled. If you insist, Rockauto sells power stop upgrade pads that are good also.
I used to have an IS350 and with the genuine Lexus pads on, an insane amount of brake dust and squealing. Replaced with Akebono Performance ultra premium ceramics and never had an issue with noise or dust afterwards.
Bought my power stop Z26 from them - amazing and quality
Powerstop brakes are great. I had them on my Stealth and two other of my vehicles.
From what I remember, On my c63, just the pads were $460, but the install was only $150. I brought them Akebono pads, and they said … oh these are the wrong ones. Funny my mechanic put them on just fine.
I hate akebono pads. They last a long time but feel like crap and don't stop the car nearly as well.
