Akebono Front pads for 03S...$75 shipped

I have a set of front pads that I bought for my 03S. They should work on any 986 S. I paid $80 for them I'll let them go for $75 shipped. Let me know.

Tony

Anyone looking for Akebono pads? These things produce ZERO brake dust. They're amazing. This is for a new set.

Curious why you are not using them?

Are they ceramic?

How do they compare to OEM pads?

I bought them from partsgeek and instead of sending me a front and rear set, They sent me 2 fronts. Since they NEVER take parts back, I'm forced to sell them. I ended up ordering the rear set from somewhere else and am currently using them. They are Awesome pads. They are the Euro line:
Akebono EURO Ultra-Premium Ceramic Brake Pads | Akebono
They are ceramic, and they brake better then the OEM pads. The best thing about them is that there is little or no brake dust. That alone makes them worth their weight in gold. The OEM pads put out a ton of brake dust. I had to thoroughly clean the wheels every week. Not so with these pads.
