Hey OP! I bought those exact ones for my 2013 MK6 Jetta 2.5 SE and they work and look great on my car
Yes top quality.
Zimmer was oem for my old a6. I run akebono or bosch pads on every car I do a brake job on. Just fyi the akebono's squeak when cold but its just a byproduct of being ceramic.
Akebono pads with Zimmerman rotors is the absolute best combo out there. They are quiet with good progressive pedal feel and low dust.
I recall Honda uses Akebono as the maker for their OEM brake pads and from my experience with multiple Honda cars, the brake pads work well.
I am easy on brakes. I coast to stops and don't speed either. I have a 2009 Fit. I swapped the front pads and rotors at 120,000 miles just because. They totally did not need to be swapped. I have since put 97,000 miles on the replacement pads and rotors. The ceramic pads I installed have plenty of life left. The rotors are near the end, but still work.
I put 68k on my 21 accord in about 2 years. Pads were all at 7mm. 80 percent highway, 20 percent city.
I upgraded to the akebono pads, and blank rotors. I have been satisfied, and would recommend this combination
I started with akebono pads and rotors after my OE set wore out and they were okay. After them I bought the power stop setup and they weren’t worth it in my opinion they warped a little bit.
i have the same looking rotors, mine was using an akebono pads and meyl brand rotors. the rotors were just so rusted after 60000 miles.
