Resurrecting this thread because, after more than 4 years and over 70K miles, the Akebonos are not only still on the car; they look barely worn.

I am beyond stunned by this as I excepted to see wafers during my most recent inspection.

I have forgotten how the OEM pads feel -- but I do know these work just as well, with I am sure a bit more pedal pressure that feels perfectly normal.
