Just replaced mine with Akebonos and no complaints so far.
Akebono ceramic pads with OEM or Zimmerman rotors is an OEM+ solution. They produce almost 0 brake dust and maintain OEM feel and performance.
I just did Akebono ProAct pads and Advics ultra-premium rotors from Rockauto. I'm pretty happy with these. Was using Wagner pads, the initial bite was better but the amount of brake dust was pretty substantial in comparison.
I have Akebono's on the rear of my R. VERY low dust from both.
I always buy akebono ceramic pads. They are made in japan and are great quality for the price. Dead silent too.
I prefer non-OEM pads (Akebono) so I go with my Indy for that, though the value service pricing is super competitive and honestly impossible for Indys to really match? $99 oil change is so low margin
I use Brembo rotors and Akebono pads.
Best combo I've found so far
I'm going with Akebono ProACT for less dust.
I’m at around 104k in my 3, on original pads but had an issue with the rear clips causing some squeaks and need to replace those.
70,000 miles on the X because the emergency brake pad fell out. They told me to redo the whole set at $2,000 since the ebrake was out and it wasn’t covered under warranty.
