Best pads out there IMO. I've only put them on my car for the last 200k km. I'm due to change them for the 3rd time in the spring lol (90% highway driving)
Pros: best pads, long lasting
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 200000 km
I always use Akebono PROAct pads, and cheapest Centric rotors (changed with pads every time) I stop GREAT.
Pros: stop GREAT
maybe not the place but anyone have an idea as to why my newly replaced pads and rotors squeak? I got akebono ceramics paired with durago coated rotors and they stop like crazy, barely dust but they SQUEALLLLL when braking lightly and only lightly.
Pros: stop like crazy, barely dust
Cons: pads and rotors squeak
I replaced my pads at 70k from factory. Had ATC on the whole time and I use PROPilot Assist and Intelligent cruise control often and most of the time it's together. Very minimal pad wear after replacing. The factory ones squeaked when it was cold but would go away after some heat, I went with the Akebono ASP pads this go around and no noise at all.
Pros: minimal wear, no noise
Cons: squeaked when cold
Mileage: 70000 km
I got the Zimmermann coated rotors and Akebono ceramic pads from FCP Euro. The braking power and smoothness are way better than what I had with the scrapy metal sounds before, lol.
Pros: better braking power, smooth
