Brake pads Akebono or DBA
I noticed a significant reduction in brake dust on my wheels after i switched to power stop drilled and slotted paired with akebono pads
akebono has my vote over TRW. They produced the least amount of brake dust and good bite.
Akebono pads have been great for us, long life, no noise, very little dust, I don’t notice a difference in braking compared to stock
power stop cross drilled roters and akebono brake pads. Got rid of the brake dust with these.
I used Akebono pads and rotors. Excellent combo.
Ended up getting these and installing them over the weekend (Abkebono ASP1210A pads and Raybestos rotors). The pads are super quiet and seem to bite well. Gf reports, "Holy my brakes BRAKE!" haha. Install was easy, the pads fit perfectly and had the correct clips. The rotors seem fine quality seems about right for the price,
Akebono is just as respected and does as much OEM brakes as a company like Brembo. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them at all. Akebono is the brake supplier for companies like McLaren and many others.
Akebono pads. Less dust than the factory pads and still have great stopping power.
I have a brand new set of ankebono pads that I was going to install on my car until I drove a buddy's Jetta w these pads. I must admit that I do not like the lack of brake bite compared to OEM.
Yeah, akes are trash when it comes to braking in heat or heat cycling and have horrible fade even with slightly aggressive driving but they really do produce nearly zero dust.
