Pros

Akebono ceramic brake set is very quiet in my 18 rx350. These front pads fit nicely (so do the rear pads) they make no noise and do a good job of stopping my car's front wheels. The product was used for a toyota highlander.

Opened and reinstalled with appropriate grease etc. No brake dust.

    Pads are perfect fit for my 2016 highlander but i had to reuse the old metal clips the new ones cannot be used


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The back metal shims are much smaller than the oem ones hope its not an issue in the future why would they put such smaller shims and they look cheap


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Over all i like akebono and i hope they are really made in usa and not in india or mexico you cant trust what the packages say at this time

    If i had to do it all over again i’d buy genuine toyota

    Nothing against akebono just not much price difference from toyota pads


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I must admit that i did not replace or have the rotors turned on my 2017 sienna during its first brake pad change and unfortunately during a trip from nyc to va i did get that warped rotor signature during braking from above 55 mph
