Akebono Brake pads

I changed the front pads and rotors for the first time in my ‘17 at 116k miles in July. I went with Zimmerman Z coat 312mm non-pp rotors and Akebono ceramic pads. 4k miles on the new parts and the bite and pedal response is excellent!

Pros: excellent bite and response
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 116000 km

Akebono Brake pads

I got powerstop rotors drilled and slotted from Amazon front and rear for about $300 and some akebono brake pads with the sensors. Probably all in under $500. Did the work myself, pretty easy honestly.

Pros: easy to install

Akebono Brake pads

Had the same shit on my 2016 Legacy - brake pads and rotors every 20-25k. The stealership blamed ME for it, claiming I must "ride my brakes a lot." The first one happened ~22k miles from brand new, and the warranty covered it. They told me the replacement at 45k would be on me for nearly $1500. I had my local shop put in third-party rotors and OEM Akebonos (the same brand Subaru uses) at that 45k (around five years ago) and just had them changed ~97k. The shop that put them in were amazed I'd ridden on five year old pads and rotors. The third-party rotors were still serviceable, and not having to worry about either until ~150k was worth a little more to me. So no, you're not the only one who is suspicious that Subaru's OEM rotors suck.

Pros: long lasting third-party rotors
Cons: early wear, expensive OEM
Mileage: 97000 km

Akebono Brake pads

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
