Akebono Brake Pads

65

By Gefforyt

In my opinion, Akebono Brake pads. are the best full ceramic brake pad on the market. Specifically designed for European veicles, Akebono is the first brake pad manufacturer to produce a true ceramic pad for European vehicles that delivers the same European pedal feel and stopping power as the Original Equipment (OE) pads. Akebono's exclusive clean wheel formulations help to eliminate the heavy brake dust issues normally associated with the OE pads, too, and a definitive control of noise, vibration and harshness is felt. Which means, no more dirty looking wheels

One hundred percent asbestos-free, the pads' Advanced Ceramic Technology helps to extend rotor life resulting in fewer rotor replacements (and additional dollars saved).

Akebono Euro pads are approved for use by Audi, Mercedes-Benz and Volkswagen, and Volvo.

I agree that Akebono pads are great but they're hard to come by from local retailers when I need to get a brake job done quickly. My customers have been pretty happy with the Wagner ThermoQuiet pads I've installed.

BTW, what are your thoughts on Denso Iridium plugs?

Availability is the biggest problem for Akebono brake pads. Fortunately, we have a supplier called world pac that delivers to us 3 times a day as long as we get our orders in before the cut off times.

The Denso spark plugs are some of the best on the market, although some of our customers arent too happy with the price. Some of the Denso iridiums are a little pricey, as is the NGKs. At our service center, we recommend going with the OE plug, depending on the type of car it is. At our service center we warranty all of our labor for 12 months or 12k miles so we really are looking for the best part for each individual vehicle.
