OEM pads are semi-metallic , not ceramic

i like the hawk hps pads. Im running akebono ceramic pads on mine and they are quiet, limit brake dust, and stop real nice.

Hey guys,

I just bought Akebono ceramic brake and was planning to change it today but when I open the box, this is what I found. Am not sure but I dont think those will fit the fx35 2009+!!!
I dont know if the part # wrong or they gave me something else by mistake. First time to change brake pads other than OEM [emoji16].






They are too small compared to OEM that I used to buy and it does not have the provision for the pins in the middle !!

Is anybody have good or bad experiences with Brembo brakes pad with thier oem rotors? I'm worried that the pads will prematurely wear out the rotors or vice versa due to material content between the pads and rotors.

Hi these are for the non akebono sport calipers
The fx50 has sport calipers which will be good with ACT1346 and ACT 1347 or get a more expensive ASP1346/1347
