Akebono Brake Pads Review – During the day I run a brake & alignment shop and I only install the best brake pads I can get. Akebono is an original equipment brake pad supplier to a number of car makers. If it’s good enough for them, it’s good enough from me. 
The thing I like about Akebono pads is I never have comebacks from noise issues whenever I use them. The other thing is they feel like factory pads when you step on the brakes. Unlike cheap pads that don’t.
Used to be when I was doing brakes on a Honda, I’d always have to go to the dealer and buy the factory pad because If I used aftermarket pads I’d almost have a comeback everytime.
When our local parts house started carrying Akebono I started installing them and have never had one comeback since. For Asian vehicles they’re my first choice.
Check out this video for tips on how and why you should flush your brake fluid every time you change pads.
