Akebono EUR986 Euro Ultra Premium Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Kit , GREY

best brand

Much better bite, virtually no brake dust and noise free. I only hope they last longer than the 21,XXX miles I got out the OEM's.

These brakes were worth every penny. I have a Mercedes e350 and my biggest concern was how dirty my rims would get with the break dust. These are amazing they stay clean for about 3 week to a months oppose to a several days from some decent brakes. They also feel like they brake amazing. Strongly recommend it for anyone looking for great quality. Never heard of this company before so I was ver skeptical to buy them. Glad I made the right choice.

Purchased these for one of my cars a while ago and have been very impressed. Very low dust, especially coming from OEM Mercedes pads, no noise , and good stopping power. So I decided to purchase a second set for my other car. I installed these myself and things went smoothly for the most par, getting the calipers off and the old pads out was the most frustrating part. Note: these do NOT come with brake wear sensors needed for Mercedes.

Perfect fit and easy install. No problems.

Well it’s a good thing I waited a month to do the review! These brakes were perfect for the first month but now I am getting very loud squeaking noise from them! They were so quiet the first month so that lets me believe these are fakes like fake air Jordan’s! The fake Jordan’s look good the first month but they break apart after that! These brakes have ceramic coating and probably not real ceramic all the way through. That is why you get a month of quiet braking then all hell” brakes” loose!

As per the manufacturer THIS ITEM DOES NOT FIT C63 AMG !!!!!! As you can see from the picture I attached Mercedes OEM brake pads do not have the giant clip in the center of the backing plate and are shaped completely different. This is not the fault of the seller but that of Akebono as they were mislabeled from the factory. I am in no way knocking Akebono as they make some really awesome brake packages but Save yourself the headache and hassle and do not buy this model

Pads are installed on an 2007 Benz E350 on brand new front & rear rotors by ATE. Right away I noticed these pads don't bite down hard like my other pads, maybe because there full ceramic.I only have about 300 miles on them, I'm hopping they'll grip harder over time... if not I'm replacing them with the pads I had before from AUTO ZONE !!!!
