I picked them up to do replacement job on my 2004 Subaru Forester XT. Straight forward replacement and they do the job. Don't notice any shimmy, no extra dust or mess, and my car stops...silently. What more could I ask for? ### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars okay brake pads for 2010 subaru *by C***G on Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2023* I purchased the brake pads on another ecommerce website around 2019. Today, the front pads have worn to be super thin. The pads lasted 4 years in Texas weather. Perhaps the heat from this summer wore the pads. Anyways, when I used the pads for the last two years, I observed significant brake dust on my wheel. I wear the OEM 2010 Subaru wheels. I don't believe the brake pads are good quality compared to OEM. My previous front brake pads were OEM pads.I purchased the Akebono brake pads because some Subaru forum members believed akebono is the OEM supplier. I discover they are not the OEM quality. If you need OEM quality, nothing beats the Subaru pads from the dealership. I obtained a significant discount purchasing brake pads from the third party online store. The akebono brake pads lasted for four years, so I cannot complain. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Akebono ACT929 *by C***O on Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 2012* Purchased this for my 2009 Subaru Legacy 2.5i Special Edition and I am extremely satisfied. Brake pads are an exact OEM fit, quiet, and brake response is immediate without brake fad. Does not come with anti squeal compound, I highly recommend you purchase this and place on the inside and outside of the brake shim to prevent squeals from brake vibration.Brake dust is to a minimum and have no complaints. Does the job and does it well. Highly recommend this product. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/4595169-akebono-brake-pad-set](https://www.desertcart.be/products/4595169-akebono-brake-pad-set) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-04-29*
