Thumbs up Believe I got Best price for Akebono brakes

Figured I'd share my recent order to our members since I believe I had a good deal.
I recently ordered the Akebono Euro Ultra Premium Ceramic brake pads for my E90, 2006 325xi, missed delivery on Friday, so I'll pick it up on Mon or Tuesday, they had the best price and no shipping or taxes.

Didn't get them yet, I will go to UPS to pick them up on Mon or Tues. The price is per axle.
I hope they are as good as members say they are.

good price, i got them from amazon for a few bucks more. think youll be happy with them, they are not better than oem, but just as good. the main selling point for me is the low amount of brake dust. i changed my rears and left the fronts oem because they were still new. a week after a wash, the fronts are almost black, while the rears look brand new. as long as your not expecting high performance braking, these pads will do just fine, akebono makes the pads used a number of cars, including the g37

Thanks for info,a selling point was the low brake dust too including the price and since I don't drive my car hard I figured why not give them a shot.
