Need to do a brake job in the front and am currently contemplating whether I should still go OEM or not. Currently running a fully OEM brake setup all around and they squeal like crazy regardless of temperature/weather. The brakes were put on back in 2017, so I was wondering if the issue has been fixed since then (since I’ve heard something about a TSB floating out there). Here are the part numbers I’m planning on picking up:
43512-22261
43516-22011
Front Rotors
04465-30500
Front Pad Set
04945-30350
Front Shims Set
43512-22261
43516-22011
Front Rotors
04465-30500
Front Pad Set
04945-30350
Front Shims Set

OE is fine but they dust so much, and yes they are noisier as well. they do perform very well however; marginally better than akebono from my experience.
i still prefer akebono (run them on all my cars/trucks) just for the fact it dusts so much less but they don't have that same initial bite that OE pads do!

+1 for Centric Rotors and Akebono Ceramic Pads. It's been working great for a year no noise, no issues, good braking, low dust, cheaper than oem
I bought from RockAuto and Amazon
