  1. None of those are available for a 2016 Acura MDX.

  2. I have NEVER bed-in Akebono ProAct Ceramic brake pads (as per their instructions) and I have never had an issue. In fact, my current 2022 RX350 has these pads with EBC’s higher carbon RK carbon, solid RK rotors and 35,000kms later…. they stop better than the oem set did! The oem set on that Lexus warped after only 52,000kms! I also did a brake-job on our CX-5 and tried to save $140 using some rotors and pads recommended on a Mazda forum and 2 years later, the rotors were warped! Those were using Centric Cryo rotors with Posi-Quiet brake pads. Absolute junk! Buy-once, cry-once!

  3. I only use BrakeBest from OReilly. It literally says Best in the name.

  4. EBCs on my truck were black, but mine 4runner s got 3pc design performance Stoptechs, they are really good.

    Oh god he is still pushing those Textar rotors as high quality. All I can say is that I hope you don’t charge your customers a lot for them because they are insanely cheap.
