Brake pads Akebono or TRW

Akebono all the way..made in USA too

Akebono was the oem brand last I checked, not sure if still the case. I'm using them, and they stop just like oem, no noise or issues.

switched to Akebono brake pads and brake dust was gone on my f30.

They're quiet, low dust, and take away a little of the overly aggressive initial bite (i hate it, you might not).

On my particular vehicle, the front pads and rear pads have a friction code of GG. I am currently running the Akebobo ASP performance brake pads and have been completely satisfied and impressed with the performance.

Akebono has apparently discontinued their performance ASP line and replace them with “an equivalent“. their standard line ACT pads are allegedly exactly the same, with reduced copper content. Additionally, the front pads still have a GG rating, but the rear pads are a lower FF rating.

I've had the low dust OEMs before and have Akebono ASPs currently. The biggest difference is the initial bite that you get from OEMs. I started to prefer the lack of intial bite more for daily driving since the stopping power feels more linear with Akebonos unlike OEMs where you barely press it and it feels like you stomped on the brakes which is noticeable in stop-and-go traffic. Also, OEM has brake squeal when they're cold.

TRW a kezdetektől 4/1 sípol, sosem lehet tudni.
