Thanks for the info. I went ahead and ordered the PosiQuiets, only because every website I went to only had the rotors OR the Ake's. I wanted to order them together, so Centric for both is what I went with. And honestly, the only (somewhat) control you have in an accident is if it occurs in front of you. If you're T-boned or rear-ended you're at the mercy of others, not your brake pads.

How did your install go? How are the new brakes? Would you do anything different. Trying to come up with a good rotor pad combo for my '15 250 F sport.

I replaced the stock with the Akebono 1178's last night. Pretty spongy compared to stock... Anyone tried the ASP908 pads?

Anyone have any updates? I have a 16 350 F Sport and like most the brake dust is horrible. Can anyone weigh in on the best pads on the market that will at least cute dust down by 50% without reducing braking grip? Do most order from TireRack?
