Brake pads Akebono or POWER STOP
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 used power stop on a TSX and a Pilot without any issues.
I have purchased the Powerstop kit for 2 of my cars. They are great non OEM replacements.
Rock auto parts are good. Powerstop is a good brand currently running raybestos on my 2008 accord.
I put power stop on my pilot 4k miles ago. It stops.
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.
I have Akebono ProACT in front and OE at the back. All good.
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)
If that quote is just for pads, it's not a ripoff. it's criminal!!! Do yourself a favor and buy powerstop, install them yourself, and save a fortune. Scat brakes are ridiculously easy to work on.
