Review on Akebono ACT1044 ProACT Ultra Premium Ceramic by Hanson Kendrick

Edit: After 2 or 3 months this was one of the worst purchases I have ever made. Thank GOD I didn't crash the car after installing it. The drop in stopping power after less than 1000 miles is so great that I went to a mechanic who checked the brakes and found poorly made pads to be the culprit. The guarantee IS ACTIVE after 30 days, well before any real problems arise, so let me repeat again: NEVER BUY THESE PADS! You can get the ones that were badly made, just like me. BTW I installed them exactly as they should, bled the system according to a forum post we've all seen (for my Mazda 3 model) that explains everything, and still they are terrible. As I said before I edited this, I was signed to Akebono, I've been to their E-Town KY factory, and I'm surprised to the core that a company that I respect as much as they do, have such a released bad product. SHAME *rings* SHAME
