    What brake pads would you get? (akebono calipers)

    Hey guys I'm Looking into buying new brake pads for when i put on my new (OEM sized blank) brembo rotors. I have AEM pads right now one my original stock from 93 rotors and i think they are lacking due to the amount of wear on my rotors so i was thinking about getting another set but i wanted to see if anyone has other pads that they like.

    note: I have akebono calipers

    im lookin into these brands but would like some feedback

    1. Hawk
    2. EBC
    3. AEM

    i've done some reasearch and kinda have an idea as to what i want but i want other ideas

    i would go with the Hawks. i have been running rotex pads for a bit over a year now with my brembo sloted rotors and they have been great. to my suprise there is still about 80% of the pad left after a year.

        Hands down, i will back brembo pads for the front, they make one its the sport pad .... i will always put them on the front of my car.

        BTW: i saw them on sale on a tire web site for like ~$65 .... they are normally closer to $90

          My presonal preference is Brembo rotors and Akebono pads.
