Akebono Ceramic Brake Pads and Shim Kit (Fronts: EUR 776/ Backs:EUR738) - For 986 Boxster S

It includes the front shims for the pads (the rectangle with the two circle pieces)

I bought these here from jaxonaldson but before I could get them put on I started doing track days. I understand that these pads are very quiet, low dust, but they are not a track pad. I still have enough OEM stock pad to get me through my next few DE events and them I am upgrading.

I will get a picture on here soon. Note that the front pads (EUR 776) are a different number than what the various wizards will show, for example tire rack) but if you search you will see that these are correct for the Boxster S. Several other users on this forum are using them.

$75 shipped to the continental US.

Thank you!

Edit: these are front and back brakes for an S. I believe the fronts can also be used on 99-00 996 and the backs I think may be able to be used on non S 96 Boxsters.

Steve

PS Pics coming soon.
