Brake pads Brembo or Akebono

Brembo Z04 is very expensive but is the strongest pad you can buy

Vesrah RJL-ZZ is cheaper and can offer decent bite and is fairly linear pad, XX is stronger but also more progressive

EBC GPFAX is a good pad and cheaper, kind of similar to the ZZ but slightly less feel and weaker

I kept hearing good things about Akebono. Had been using random brands for years. I switched to Akebono and was blown away how much less brake dust is on my rims!

For Dodge products I use 3 companies only. 1: adaptive one ceramic pads and coated rotors from Napa 2: akebono pads and coated rotors (I get mine from world pac but they’re not a retail supplier), or 3: straight from the dealer. These are the only options I’ve used consistently with no noise complaints.

Hey OP! I bought those exact ones for my 2013 MK6 Jetta 2.5 SE and they work and look great on my car

Yes top quality.

Zimmer was oem for my old a6. I run akebono or bosch pads on every car I do a brake job on. Just fyi the akebono's squeak when cold but its just a byproduct of being ceramic.

Akebono pads with Zimmerman rotors is the absolute best combo out there. They are quiet with good progressive pedal feel and low dust.

I recall Honda uses Akebono as the maker for their OEM brake pads and from my experience with multiple Honda cars, the brake pads work well.

Brembo low dust pads and oem rotors on my 330ci. Rotors tend to warp easy on these so I figured I'd stick with bmw.

I've had issues with my EuroCarPart "Brembo" pads overheating to the point of squealing for a couple of miles after some spirited driving.
