Review on Akebono ACT1539 Proact Ultra Premium Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Kit - Superior Performance in GREY by Zach Spangler

Bought these brakes on recommendation as replacement pads for Subaru Genuine which are actually made by Akebono. I assumed the quality would be the same or better but I was so wrong. These pads have terrible brake fade and have a very strong smell when hot. This never happened with original Subaru pads. Because of the $5 price difference, I will definitely buy Subaru pads next time.
