only got about 10k miles out of them on my truck.


had to do a quicky brake job with some el'cheapo's that my brother gave me when he sold his truck in my driveway tonight, in this G/D snow we're getting.

6" since this afternoon.

There was a little snow on the hills around here this morning, and it's not supposed to snow here.
Any lower and it would have been snowing on the beach.

I have used Akibono ceramic pads in MANY of my daily drivers.
I LOVE THEM!!!!!!


Then again... I live in SoCal.
Where snow is just something we talk about and can only see it in magazines.

Akibonos rule for socal street cars. (Not for racing)

i had ceramics on my 300E with brembo cross drilled rotors.

fantastic fade resistance, exceptionally clean running, and with moderate longevity.

i'd do it again in a heartbeat for a sport/luxury car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
