I use akebono pads on Brembo rotors
Love them
I live 2800 feet above sea level
Tons of braking for me on twisty roads last 103k miles on this car
No brake fade
Excellent pedal feel
Shorter stoping distance
Doesn*t heat up
Consistent stops
Bought them online
No clue where they are made - I am sure you can google that info
I am not sure. Never used power stop. My 2012 Acura TSX uses Hawk, which are fantastic. https://acurazine.com/how-tos/a/acura-tsx-brake-pad-reviews-426595How would you compare these to PowerStop brand - RockAuto has them? Incidentally I use Powerstop on my Acura's - no complaint. I am looking because M5 seems to have longer stopping distance.
