Two weeks ago I installed Axxess Deluxe brake pads all around. The pedal feels softer than it did before, but after using them for combo highway and city driving I am satisfied with the way they stop.

I could not stand all the dust the OEM pads created and these pads are practically dustless. My wheels actually stay clean for more than 10 minutes of driving! When I washed the car today (the second time since I've had the pads) I again noticed very little dust. A little P21S Wheel Cleaner and I was good to go.

These pads get a thumbs up from me.

I too have been running the Axxis Deluxe pads int he front and have been pretty happy with them. I'm glad to see your enjoying them but I do have to say, I recently installed Centric cross drilled and slotted rotors and....wow!! Stopping power is awesome! So if you need rotors soon, Centrics are the way to go.

BTW, are you running the Axxis pads in the rear too?

Yep and thanks for the rotor tip. I didn't change the rotors this time (they measured out good), but the next time I will.

How do these compare with Hawk HPS pads as far as dust is concerned?

I haven't had as much dust as the stock pads either, and the bite of the Hawks is impressive. I really like the Hawk pads and would definitely get them again
