Brake pads Akebono or Zimmermann

I've also been using Centric 120-series brake rotors and Akebono ProAct ceramic pads for years. The pads are long-lasting and amazingly dust-free.

If you are cheap like me you will swap to Akebono Ceramic pads. Rotor will last 4x longer.

Akebono are the oem makers for toyota pads. I have used those with great results on a higher quality rotor.

I believe Akebono makes them. I put them on all my cars, the ceramic pads are quiet, little dust, don’t fade and last a long time.

Akebono ceramic pads are great. Stop well, very low dusting.

I just installed front and rear brakes @90k on my MK7.5 GTI w/PP brakes with a kit from FCP Euro Zimmerman cross drilled font and rear with EBC Red Stuff pads. The price has gone up a good bit since then but its a good upgrade from stock imo.

I changed the front pads and rotors for the first time in my ‘17 at 116k miles in July. I went with Zimmerman Z coat 312mm non-pp rotors and Akebono ceramic pads. 4k miles on the new parts and the bite and pedal response is excellent!

akebono euro pads are literally the best and don't produce that annoying black dust all over your wheels.. definitely worth the money.

I would look at pads. Akebono which are a low dust pad act like what you are experiancing. Not a lot of inital bite. Which I like.

I replaced my brakes with Akebono. But I am not going to buy it again.
