Review on Akebono-EUR1341 Grey Brake Pad Set: Superior Performance and Reliability by Tony Elliott

Bought a set of front and rear brake pads for my 2008 Mercedes C350. When first installed I was concerned that they didn't have the stopping power of the OEM pads which are much more "biting" (no gradual deceleration, just STOP). However, after a few kilometers of slumping, these baddies stop in the blink of an eye without whiplash. It's amazing how gentle they are, but they quickly stop the car. These pads make adjusting the brakes much easier. I highly recommend them. Mainly because of their low brake dust. (A find if you ask me).
