Brake pads Akebono or OEM KIA
akebono pads are oem. drive nice and quiet and strong. centrics rotors are decent.
I bought stock front rotors from a local dealer. Shopped around to find a dealer with the lowest price (low $90/ea range as I recall). I purchased Akebono Performance ceramic pads on Amazon: They are showing as “currently unavailable.” Maybe you can find them somewhere else. Brake pulsing is now gone, car stops very well, and I have less brake dust than with stock pads.
Accord G8 2010 - Dejo un listado todo repuestos originales en Honda, algunos los compre sin factura y me bajaron un 20-30%, otros solo pedí precio y no los compre todavía. \-4 Pastillas originales Akebono - 330K
Right now I’m looking at getting the Akebono Proact pads. Fairly confident the pads are good cuz that’s the OEM brand to my understanding
I changed my wife's KIA Soul pads at 60k miles. Used OEM pads. Checked a month or two ago and they were still halfway through. She is at 200k miles.
Akebono Ceramic pads and EBC rotors (slotted if you're feelin frisky). EBC pads are fine too, but a lot of people experience noise. Akebono pads are just super solid and problem free.
All the time. I usually go for Akebono Pro Act pads, and name brand rotors like Raybestos, etc.
I buy everything parts related on there unless I need something the same day then I buy locally. I stick with Akebono brakes for all my cars and they’ve been good so far. For rotors I just go with a well known brand that has painted hats to avoid rusts.
Had the Hawk 5.0 HPS and they dust their ass off. Took them off and went with the ceramic Akebono and I don’t even notice a difference in pedal feedback after breaking them in. Initially they did have less stopping power but now I can’t tell. They also squealed at low speeds for some reason. (Such as pulling out of driveway)
Btw i did Akebono pads after replacing my rotors and it squealed really bad, ended up going to lexus dealer and had to get oem pads.
