I just replaced all four corners with Zimmerman rotors and Akebono pads. Much reduced dust.
I have OE rotors with Akebono Ceramic pads and they're perfect. Dust is no longer an issue and didn't sacrifice any noticeable stopping power over OEM.
I put in Akebono pads and they worked fine on my 9th gen. Fantastic pads.
The OEM Toyota brakes are made by Akebono, however, you can use a quality aftermarket set and you'll be fine.
All 4 brand new brake rotors + pads + fluid – OEM spec ECS rotors w/ Akebono ceramic pads ($1100)
the concept shown at SEMA receives several modifications such as a Garrett G25 660 turbine with Manley pistons and Eagle whiskers. As if it were not enough this Sentra model would be equipped with Akebono brakes from Nissan Z.
Akebono ceramic brake pads on RockAuto. Done, easy. They're an OG Japanese OEM, so you can expect consistency in quality. They're expensive but they're good and if you're going to get down on your knees and pop the wheels off you might as well do it right and get powerful and silent braking power for your trouble.
On these cars Akebono is as good or better than OEM with far less dust.
Zimmermann is quality. If you want OEM brake feel go with Textar or Pagid pads. I have Akebono pads on the Z3 and don’t like them
When I had my Honda, a freak incident occured involving pads. I was coming up to a red light and I just heard a "thunk" and next thing I know, I had little to no-brake power. Took the wheel and caliper off, and somehow the outer pad had completley vanished....no joke, gone, nothing left, not even a shred of metal.
