    i will attest to that. nakagamit ako ng akebono noon sa FD as replacement pads very minimal ang dust. ang napasin ko maraming dust are bmws. do they use textars?

    Nippon-built Mazda OE pads are Akebono. Picey off the dealership. The Mex-built USDM (2& iA), Ferodo.

    As far as I know some models of BMWs use German pads I forgot the brand, they are very dusty. Pero hindi Texstar brand.

    Methinks those Proacts are the top of the line ones. Kaso US made so probably will only cater to USDM models.

    Are those pads for your car? Which model?

    Nice. Wish there were more common parts with our other local models.

    Please post a review of the pads once you've put them on 🙂
