There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Stopping power is good, although not as strong feeling as the Raybestos EHT pads, which have a higher GG friction rating, instead of FF, these Akebono pads replaced.
The only negative is Akebono doesn't include replacement caliper pad clips. These are usually included with even the cheapest pads, so I removed 1 star from value. I re-used my old clips, as they were in great condition, but new clips are cheap, and should have been included with a "ultra premium" pad set.
5/11/19 Edit: Just used these pads again. Rotors were warped, put new rotors on, so also changed the pads since I was in there and everything was apart. These pads had 85,000 miles on them and were only about 60% worn. Still had 40% life left. These are the best pads you can buy for Honda/Acura vehicles in my opinion.
These are great quality brake pads, I highly recommend them. I noticed a big difference in braking after installing them, the brakes seemed much more responsive and effective than the previous set I had. I'd recently bought the car used so I'm not sure what brand were on there before.
I've had them installed for about 4 months now and they still work as well as when I installed them.
After doing some math, I concluded that if I buy Front and Rear Akebono pads and Front and Rear Power Slotted Rotors, the labor only adds extra 10 bucks per rotor to be replaced. My total that included labor and all rotors and pads was the same amount as two OEM rear Honda rotors(no labor).
So, here we go, I had them replaced at 19K miles back in October 2011, right now I have 34K miles and still no signs of coming replacement on either part. It took about a month for my phobia to go away from pushing brakes, because after driving almost 6 month of squealing brakes it got deep into my mind, so it was hard to get over it.
Combination of these Akebonos with Power Slotted Rotors that I have bought from autoanything provide me with best braking power. I would definitely recommend them after a year of ownership, I drive everyday 50 miles and that involves a lot of stop and go on Brooklyn's Belt Parkway due to the traffic and I believe that they will last another 4 to 5 years easily.
I will put same review on Rear pads since I bought them at the same time.
P.S. I wanted to get Monroe's since the price was coming to about 15 bucks but there was not reviews and I didn't want to take a chance after having such a trauma in my head from the squealing OEM brakes, the difference is about 30 dollars from Monroes with rebate or 10 without and Monroes didn't have any reviews back then, so my decision was with known Akebonos and that price differece is minimal taking into consideration that they'll last years.
