The OEM brakes have more bite, but there's so much brake dust. The Akebono definitely do not bite as much, but they perform well under heavy braking (mountain driving), have little to no noticeable brake dust, and lasted longer.
Pros: less brake dust, longer lasting
Cons: less bite

I switched to valvoline restore and protect on my 06 is250 and it’s working great. The valves are a lot quieter compared to the previous oil I was using which was Kirkland synthetic.
Pros: valves are quieter
Vehicle:

OEM is first choice, or Advics Aftermarket, which are almost to the level of OEM. Dont bother with power stop if you are looking for performance and longevity.
Pros: almost to OEM level
Cons: not for performance, longevity

Pros: reduced brake dust

Finally ended up with Penzoil Plat. Can't tell a difference at all when the oil is fresh. Also engine never burned oil on Penz.
Pros: engine never burned oil
Cons: no difference when fresh
