      Comments about Akebono Ultra Premium Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Kit:

      I have been an auto tech for almost 17 years and have used every major brand out there. These brakes are some of the best pads available. It makes sense why they work so well and that is because Akebono makes the brake pads for over 10 car manufacturers including Honda. I use them on my personal vehicles and dozens of my customers over the years without 1 complaint. As a person that has performed well over 1,000 brake services, I highly recommend them.

        These are my favorite pads for my 2008 Honda Civic. They perform better then OEM and last longer and didn't wear my rotor down. No dusting. The fitting is perfect. Highly reccomended.

          I got these installed. Took the guy 45 minutes for the front. Beware this only is for the front pair. I thought this price was for all 4 sides but only the front two. Luckily I didn't need for the back side.
