Brake pads Akebono or Raybestos

OEM rotors and akebono pads????

I like akebono pro act pads. Low dust, good performance

Akebono pads for me. They’re a little more expensive than raybestos but are worth the price difference.

Highly recommend the Akebono ASP888 & ASP905. Not overly expensive, great stopping power, low noise, and low dusting.

Stock pads are Akebono ACT1124 and ACT1539. ASP series is a decent upgrade without sacrificing on dust and noise though.

I went with Akebono on our 3IS, good wear life, very little dust, they seem to perform well in all situations. I’ve had them on the front for 120k miles (I think the first set lasted almost 100k, replaced with the same), and about 20k on the rears.

My Akebono pads are great!! Nooooo dust! Go for it!!

I just replaced my front brakes. I went with Akebono ceramic pads and Raybestos Elemento coated rotors since I live in a snow area. They feel so very much better than the oem brakes. The car stops with ease now. No more having to press the pedal harder and harder as you stop.

Stock rotors and pads. Akeboko pads if I’ve been particularly annoyed by brake dust, but that’s an ebb/flow with how busy I am with life, work, and kids and how often I’m detailing.

I recently replaced my rear brake pads with Akebono proact pads. The issue is when I go around 40 mph and break with a little force, I hear this loud noise coming from the rear. Sounds like the brake pads and trying to stop the rotor and not being successful. I never had aftermarket brakes on my car before but OEM brakes had no issues.
