Brake pads EBC or Akebono
Fresh front brakes, Zimmerman blanks with EBC Bluestuff, hopefully these do better than the yellows.
Pads I always liked Akebono for low dust
Akebono is by far my favorite with minimal dust and excellent lifespan. I have used Bosch and Mazda OEM over the life of my car.
I've been happy with my EBC pads
I am currently running EBC Yellowstuffs that i installed last winter and i have now gone 10k km and they have 2-3mm of pad left on the front. I really really like their performance and don’t really mind the wear.
IMO, Akebono Ceramics are the shiz. I had some on my Audi A4. Way better than stock, very little dust to clean off, and you can just get them off Amazon for less than OEM.
Akebono is the original equipment manufacturer of brake pads for Honda.
Big fan of ebc, run red stuff pads on any of my vehicles that they are made for.
Had the ebc yellow stuff excellent pad but the squealing for daily use was unbearable so changed back to OEM.
I’ve driven roughly 150 miles and I’ve done EBC’s suggested bed in process. But they’re still squealing when I’m coasting from 0-40mph. The squealing sounds like the wear indicator rubbing on the rotor, but they’re brand new and nowhere close to the rotor. Do they take longer to bed in? The squealing is really high pitched and annoying
