Rating 4.0

I recently replaced my son\u2019s pads/rotors on a 328i f30 , I used Akebono ceramic pads and Zimmermann rotors, he likes them much better than the oem because it doesn\u2019t make much brake dust your wheels stay cleaner, he didn\u2019t notice much difference in stopping distance, but doesn\u2019t track the car just normal spirited driving on streets and backroads

Pros: less brake dust, cleaner wheels
Cons: no stopping distance difference
Vehicle: BMW

I think akebono's are worth it for street/canyon although heavy so there are better options if your actually racing

Pros: good for street/canyon
Cons: heavy

I like Akebono Ceramic pads with Zimmerman rotors on my E92, some feel that you lose a little bite but I like them and they pretty much eliminate brake dust.

Pros: eliminate brake dust
Cons: lose a little bite

Tesla Brake pads

I just had to do brakes and ball joints on my 2016 Model S (some rough roads, and calipers were seizing from winter corrosion, I live in the state of Maine, US). 100K miles, 160Kkm (160Mm?).

Pros: windshield spritzer
Cons: calipers were seizing
Mileage: 160000 km

Tesla Brake pads

Tesla model 3 brakes are the worst of any 300+hp car I've driven and really need the regen braking. The iboost system is probably maxed out already thats why they "fixed"the long stopping distance with a software update. Driving @high state of charge you will notice the reduced braking power because of the lack of regen.

Before the software update, needing 7 feet more than a ford f150 from 60mph to complete stop was just ridiculous.

Cons: worst brakes, reduced braking power, long stopping distance
