Brake pads Akebono or WILWOOD

Ceramic pads are quiet and create minimal dust. I have the Brembo package and definitely lose some initial bite after installing Akebono Cermics, but I have grown accustomed to it. Love not having to clean dust off of my wheel all the time.

Yes Akebono Ultra Premium for pads and Brembo rotors are great.

I've used akebono aftermarket pads twice in the past. They work fine.

I did a full weekend around 90 min per day of track time on a set of Akebono Euro pads. I had expected to wear them out, but wear was minimal even with every lap having a 120-40mph full ABS brake. A bit of odor, but no fade on my E46 BMW 330i.

Ran these for four years on the redsport better then the stock Akebono. Only changed the pads once

Akebono ceramic - been great for daily

Recently changed rear pads on 2020 XT. Akebono makes OEM pads. Can get Akebonos on RockAuto. Took less than 1 hour. Need hex socket. I think size is 7mm but don’t quote me on that. Guide pin torque is 18 ft-lbs. Brake hose bracket torque is 24 ft-lbs if you take it loose. Lug nut torque is 88 ft-lbs. I didn’t replace the rotors.

I run the Akebonos on my B8.5 S4 for my daily. I also had them on my A4. Great daily pads with minimal dust.

I have a brand new set of ankebono pads that I was going to install on my car until I drove a buddy's Jetta w these pads. I must admit that I do not like the lack of brake bite compared to OEM.

I have the same problem with my M340i. I've looked at Akebono but they don't appear to have any pads for the M340, for some reason non-oem replacement pads are hard to find for this car. Anybody know of a good low dust ceramic pad for the M340?
