Ran these for four years on the redsport better then the stock Akebono. Only changed the pads once
Akebono ceramic - been great for daily
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.
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.
The most budget+quality friendly package we offer is Akebono Brake Pads and Brembo Brake Disc.
Akebono ceramic pads, they’re amazing.
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.
Akeebono on my Armada have been great.
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.
my 08 Accord went through rear pads every 18-20K miles. They were way too soft.
