Akebono front brake pads
OEM rotors and akebono pads????
I like akebono pro act pads. Low dust, good performance
Akebono pads for me. They’re a little more expensive than raybestos but are worth the price difference.
Highly recommend the Akebono ASP888 & ASP905. Not overly expensive, great stopping power, low noise, and low dusting.
Stock pads are Akebono ACT1124 and ACT1539. ASP series is a decent upgrade without sacrificing on dust and noise though.
I went with Akebono on our 3IS, good wear life, very little dust, they seem to perform well in all situations. I’ve had them on the front for 120k miles (I think the first set lasted almost 100k, replaced with the same), and about 20k on the rears.
Stock rotors and pads. Akeboko pads if I’ve been particularly annoyed by brake dust, but that’s an ebb/flow with how busy I am with life, work, and kids and how often I’m detailing.
I did not like the Akebono ASPs at all. A distinct lack of bite even after break-in. Went back to stock and all was good.
