Review on ๐Ÿ”ต Akebono ACT1118 Proact Ultra Premium Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Kit, Grey: Superior Performance and Reliability by Marco Carpenter

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Amazing brake feel in the pads

Bought these for my Lexus 06 IS350 and I knew I needed to replace the pads and discs immediately. I read a lot of good reviews on the forum about these seals and decided to give it a try. It is easy to assemble and the pads look very high quality. I was blown away by first impressions, the grip is noticeable, but what really blew me away was how good the brakes felt under hard braking. They stop the car amazingly. I know that if I hit the brakes at 60-0 I'll stop within 3 seconds, those brakes are amazing and I feel safe behind the wheel. Good luck to the backers โ˜ ๏ธ Edit: Have ridden over 25,000 miles and the front and back look practically new. Bite is still very good, squeak could be better at low speeds. The noise doesn't bother me, it's like a warning that I'm backing up for other people haha

Pros
  • Tested for a year
Cons
  • Low repairability
