Ultimate Performance with OE Quality
Cruising along the interstate, creeping through rush hour
traffic or navigating through your neighborhood, you count on
your brakes to stop your vehicle every time with smooth, quiet
assurance. Why possibly compromise braking performance just
because it is time to replace your Brake Pads? Today, motorists
have an option to restore OE performance.
Akebono Pro-ACT Ultra Premium ceramic brake pads are the
aftermarket's only OE validated, application-specific friction
formulations. Akebono knows the precise definition of OE-Quality
as determined by the Original Equipment Manufacturers, because

dusting for cleaner wheels and tires. Ceramic technology also
causes minimal wear on brake rotors. Taken together these factors
guarantee that Akebono's Pro-ACT Ultra Premium brake pads provide
the ultimate braking experience-reaching new performance levels
