Do not go for the CCBs they aren\u2019t any better on the road. Squeak like crazy when wet, and a pair of akebonos and you\u2019ll get minimal dust
Pros: minimal dust with akebonos
Cons: squeak like crazy when wet
Vehicle:
BMW
I recommend using Akebono ceramic instead of OEM semi-metallic because they’re more gentle on the rotors and significantly less dusty.
Pros: gentle on rotors, less dusty
Factory brake pads really are better but that's like the one part they seem to gouge the price on the worst, I usually try to get the closest thing to factory the aftermarket offers, you can usually get Akebono which might actually be the same as factory for quite a bit less on like Tire Rack or sometimes the local parts place will have them.
Pros: better than aftermarket
Cons: gouging the price
Spend the money on the Akebono pads.\n\nI\u2019ve been around Napa an Carquest for my entire adult life and even the best from those brands DO NOT compare to the Akebono pads. You can get them from any parts retailer
Pros: superior brake pads
Cons: expensive
Change out the pads for ceramic pads like Akebono, they should be quieter and less brake dust.
Pros: quieter, less brake dust

The brake job was easy, I bought Akebono pads, Textar is what was on it. Mine make a grinding sound on driver side now under heavy braking, I don\u2019t see anything wrong upon thorough visual inspection so I need to disassemble that side again and take a closer look. Maybe get a different brand pad to potentially avoid this?
Pros: easy brake job
Cons: grinding sound
Vehicle:

Duralast gold is good but akebono is likely the OEM manufacturer. If you can find it, get it
Pros: good, likely OEM manufacturer
Akebono ceramic is the best you can get for stock applications. Very low dust and made in usa. my LX gets Akebono pro act pads.
Pros: best for stock, very low dust, made in USA
Vehicle:
Lexus LX
Pads look good but the rotors look like they have fine grooves in them. For a Honda I’d use centric rotors & akebono pads. You can’t go wrong with that combo.
Pros: good pads, great combo
Cons: rotors have fine grooves
Vehicle:
Honda
