Review: Perfect fit and function on Lexus RX350 - 2018 Lexus RX350. Replaced pads at all four wheels and front rotors at 87,000 miles. Factory pads still had a few mm left on them, but front rotors were warped and starting to groove. Took 4 hours in my garage, giving myself ample time to clean the calipers and shims, back out the electric parking brake, and regrease pins and shims. Saved $1000 in labor costs, well worth my time. The Akebono pads fit perfectly. I reused the factory shims after cleaning them up, and they mounted perfectly to the pads. Also reused the factory squeelers, which mounted perfectly as well. The Akebono kit does include new squeelers and clips, but no brake grease. The Akebono clips fit perfectly in my calipers after removing the factory clips and wire brushing a small amount of corrosion in the caliper slots. They snapped right in without issue, and the pads slide within the clips with no binding. The electric parking brake on my RX350 was easily retracted using a 9v battery and aligator clips. I only needed one full battery to retract one piston on a dissassembled caliper, but two full batteries and a AA battery pack to retract the piston on an assembled caliper. The 4 pack of AA batteries from an electric home safe worked better than the 9v battery trick. The Akebono pads are smooth, quiet, and emit minimal dust. Very smooth under light braking, and powerful when necessary. Quiet as factory pads. Also silent when reversing the car, which is a good indicator of a quality pad.
Review: Perfect replacement for 2014 Toyota Highlander front brake pads - Perfect fit and replacement for front brake pads on a 2014 Toyota Highlander. Installation was a breeze. It comes with the hardware, springs, clips and shims. No brake grease, though. These replaced OEM toyota pads which were quiet and lasted 160K miles! These Akebonos brake strong and quiet even on reverse. Too new to observe brake dust and wear, but so far so good.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Akebono brake pads - high quality products, low dust...
*by A***R on March 4, 2023*

My car is a 2010 Lexus RX 350 (most people don't identify the make and model of their cars in these reviews, which makes it 30% less helpful for other shoppers). These front pads fit nicely (so do the rear pads). I bought them in October 2021 and installed them in May 2022. They had been at work for about nine months now and I have put almost 8,000 miles on them. There was no problem so far. They make no noise and do a good job of stopping my car's front wheels. I believe they will last about 40,000 miles. I've provided a photo of a comparison between the Akebono vs. the old pads, they look good and work well. The only complaint I have about them is the clips that come with the package were very difficult to install into the caliper. These clips are supposed to hold the pads in place so they don't slip while braking. However, the clips were a little bit too big and not a perfect fit like the OEM ones. I gave up after a while and just used the old OEM clips from the old brake pads. That worked so I was happy. I would buy their pads again from Akebono.
