good pad, virtually no dust, for compariso, had a set of EBC red stuff didn't notice much of the difference when swapped to Ake. Differently recommended for DD use.
Loved them on my Accord. The OEM stuff on the Accord sucked.
They are the OE pads on my Kiz, nice bite, zero fade and low dust.
Good pads.
The Akebono ceramic pads give off a low-visibility tan dust...but on occasion, I miss the grip of the stock pads. Was definitely a worthwhile tradeoff though: Much less to no dust for a barely perceptible reduction in initial bite/grip compared to stock VW brake pads.
Akebono in particular seems to put out an OEM quality pad.
I'm actually amazed how little these pads dust considering how well they work. Coming from my S6, where the wheels needed cleaning after every ten minutes of driving, I'm impressed!
All I have to add is that I like Akebono Euro Pads.
Highly recommend stoptech street performance pads edit: not if your dust averse which it seems you are
I've run the Akebono ceramics on a few cars. They don't have a great initial bite but they do have good stopping power in most conditions. My only note against them is that it can get scary with heavy braking while driving long distances on the highway in sub-40 degree rain - I've had multiple times in two different cars where there's a solid 2 second delay between pressing the pedal hard and them actually biting in those conditions.
