Brake pads Akebono or Raybestos

Akebono Brake pads

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.

Pros: long lasting, good quality
Vehicle: Lexus ES
Mileage: 125000 km

Rating 4.5

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.

Pros: very low dust, easy on rotors
Cons: no initial bite

I found Raybestos Element 3 pads and rotors were great on my 2011. The pads have a higher friction rating than the OE pads but still low dust and great feel and braking. Terrific value. The rotors are nice as well.

Pros: higher friction, low dust, great feel

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.

Pros: cost effective

It’s the pads. I paid my dealer to change my pads out to Akebono because the dust and noise was so bad. I get that it’s a performance car but good lord it was miserable for a daily driver.

Cons: bad dust, bad noise
Vehicle: Audi S5
