Important Note:

Brakes are a safety critical part of a motor vehicle. Brake components should be installed by a competent mechanic in a professional manner. Any incorrect installation of brake components can cause a major safety problem or an accident. If you are not a competent and qualified mechanic you should not attempt to install these products, but should take the vehicle to a vehicle dealer or competent automotive mechanic for their installation.


Disc brake pads and rotors are wear items and as such, should be inspected regularly and replaced as necessary. Read More.

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.

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.

    Akebono Euro pads are the best for my spirited street driving. They are easy to modulate from gentle stops to hard deep braking with very consistent pedal feel. They do not have the initial bite of the stock pads which always seemed to freighten dozing passengers in the car. The biggest benefit is NO brake dust. I very carefully cleaned my wheels before installing these pads on all 4 wheels and, after 16K miles, I have no brake dust on the wheels. My wheels always look gorgeously clean! The pads came with a new wear indicator cable and after applying anti squeel paste on the back of the pads, these pads make no noise. This is the third car I have installed Akebono pad on. With all three cars I had all of the benefits described above.
