If you want something good get raybestos have them in my 8th gen accord and they are above oem.
The rears are ACT828A.
I recommend using Akebono ceramic instead of OEM semi-metallic because they’re more gentle on the rotors and significantly less dusty.
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.
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
Change out the pads for ceramic pads like Akebono, they should be quieter and less brake dust.
I installed Raybestos Element 3 on my wife\u2019s 2015 LT along with new Element 3 rotors. Better stopping power than the stock pads but a little more brake dust. The increased performance is worth it to me.
Duralast gold is good but akebono is likely the OEM manufacturer. If you can find it, get it
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.
the pads are noisy and clunk … probably wouldn’t buy them again, kinda frustrating because I’ve read great reviews about them.
