Brembo Brake pads

Brembo off Ebay. Their brakes last 75k and they're so popular they are scalped from the manufacturers website in minutes lol!

Pros: long lasting
Mileage: 75000 km

I ended up buying the brembo pads after getting power stop. These brakes can squeak so go for the gold.

Pros: go for the gold
Cons: can squeak

Akebono Brake pads

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.

Pros: better than aftermarket
Cons: gouging the price

Akebono Brake pads

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

Pros: superior brake pads
Cons: expensive

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.

Pros: linear stopping power
Cons: less initial bite, brake squeal
