I put on new oem front rotors and Akebono ceramic pads and it’s like im driving a different car. No more sloshing noise in the morning and almost no dust on my wheels. Those oem pads are trash, for 100$ the Akebonos are fantastic.
Drilled Brembo max rotors and Brembo pads
Akeboro Pads + ZimmerMan Rotors
For the pads I went with:
Brembo Pad Set (P56048N + P54039N) for $110
I paid $25 ea. to have front rotors resurfaced at O’reilly and put brembo pads and new sensors on my wife’s 2017 Macan GTS for a grand total of $190 which included a new can of brake clean and new caliper bolts from Pelican.
I noticed a significant reduction in brake dust on my wheels after i switched to power stop drilled and slotted paired with akebono pads
akebono has my vote over TRW. They produced the least amount of brake dust and good bite.
Akebono pads have been great for us, long life, no noise, very little dust, I don’t notice a difference in braking compared to stock
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 Brembo brake pads and they are very noisy.
