I did a full weekend around 90 min per day of track time on a set of Akebono Euro pads. I had expected to wear them out, but wear was minimal even with every lap having a 120-40mph full ABS brake. A bit of odor, but no fade on my E46 BMW 330i.
Pros: minimal wear, no fade
Cons: some odor
Vehicle:
BMW

Recently changed rear pads on 2020 XT. Akebono makes OEM pads. Can get Akebonos on RockAuto. Took less than 1 hour. Need hex socket. I think size is 7mm but don’t quote me on that. Guide pin torque is 18 ft-lbs. Brake hose bracket torque is 24 ft-lbs if you take it loose. Lug nut torque is 88 ft-lbs. I didn’t replace the rotors.
Pros: easy installation, less than 1 hour
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
I run the Akebonos on my B8.5 S4 for my daily. I also had them on my A4. Great daily pads with minimal dust.
Pros: minimal dust, great daily

The most budget+quality friendly package we offer is Akebono Brake Pads and Brembo Brake Disc.
Pros: budget friendly
Akebono ceramic pads, they’re amazing.
Pros: amazing performance
Akebono gets my vote. Tried bendix and it grooved my rear rotors. Brembo pads are noisy and dont bite when cold. Only downside with akebono is the dust they produce.
Pros: Akebono gets my vote
Cons: dust they produce
