Brake pads Akebono or WAGNER
If you are cheap like me you will swap to Akebono Ceramic pads. Rotor will last 4x longer.
Akebono are the oem makers for toyota pads. I have used those with great results on a higher quality rotor.
I believe Akebono makes them. I put them on all my cars, the ceramic pads are quiet, little dust, don’t fade and last a long time.
Akebono ceramic pads are great. Stop well, very low dusting.
I changed the front pads and rotors for the first time in my ‘17 at 116k miles in July. I went with Zimmerman Z coat 312mm non-pp rotors and Akebono ceramic pads. 4k miles on the new parts and the bite and pedal response is excellent!
akebono euro pads are literally the best and don't produce that annoying black dust all over your wheels.. definitely worth the money.
Bumalik ako sa stock orig pero kung namamahalan ka sa orig buy akebono.
I just checked my maintenance notes and for my car I bought brake pads for $18.98 for the front set. They were Wagner OEX closeout and they are still going fine at 30,000 miles.
The brake job was easy, I bought Akebono pads, Textar is what was on it. Mine make a grinding sound on driver side now under heavy braking, I don\u2019t see anything wrong upon thorough visual inspection so I need to disassemble that side again and take a closer look. Maybe get a different brand pad to potentially avoid this?
I have a 2000 E39 that I’ve owned since new. About five years ago I got tired of the brake dust and decided to try Akebono’s. I regretted it as soon as I drove it for the first time. The BMW brake feel was gone and I had to press on the pedal twice as hard.
