Akebono ACT1347 Rear Brake Pad: Premium-Quality Grey Brake Pad for Enhanced Performance Review

This pair of brakes creaks worse even after replacing them than before I changed the previous ones. I've already adjusted them twice and the rotors are still spinning and creaking. Obviously if you see other online reviews noise is a problem with some of them that people couldn't get rid of.

Only one star because I couldn't use them at all The Q&A part of the product said these pads fit the M37S. "Question: Is this kit made for a model with sport brakes?

Driven about 200 miles with new pads (only rear ones replaced) and had no issues with noise or any issues. Installation was very easy with almost no tools and only took about an hour for both bikes. All that was needed was a wrench to remove the tires, everything else needed pliers, a screwdriver and a crowbar to move the pistons. There was plenty of lube and instructions if you need them. Only a small amount of lubricant is needed for the contact points. Be sure to grab some brake cleaner and…

I bought this brake pad together with a companion for the front axle: ACT1346 AKEBONO. I drive a 2015 370z Sport and as the brakes originally come with AKEBONO I went with these pads. This particular product (rear brake pads) squeaks annoyingly loud. At first I thought it was because I hadn't run them in, but after a few hundred miles it only got worse. The squeak occurs when driving below 10 km/h while braking very gently and evenly. If you don't agree with that loud noise every time you…
