Sitting at 110,000 and dealership is suggesting the rear brakes be changed. Time for some akebonos!
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.
I prefer Akebono ceramic. I think their top tier line is called ProAct. Very nice pads. Quiet, low dust, and perform well.
Good pad choice, I only use akebono pads personally. Looks like you have a toyota truck/suv. Same here, great pads.
For pads Akebono is best
I installed Akebono recently for my rears and so far wheels are staying pretty clean
I’ve run the Akebonos on my M235i for years with no issues. They seem to dust less than the factory ones, which is a bonus to me.
I use Akebono pads and coated Raybestos rotors. I changed my brakes around the time I got my 07 which was a year ago. I highly doubt you drive like you're street racing or drifting. My brakes still have a hell of a lot of life left in them.
I would look at pads. Akebono which are a low dust pad act like what you are experiancing. Not a lot of inital bite. Which I like.
I replaced my brakes with Akebono. But I am not going to buy it again.
