Akebono EURO Disc Brake Pad Set P/N:EUR396A
Low-dust braking for the rear axle: the Akebono EURO Ultra-Premium Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Set (P/N EUR396) is formulated for European-car owners who want clean wheels and rotor-friendly braking. It fits many BMW models, among them the 1996-2002 BMW Z3, 1992-1999 BMW 318i and 1992-1995 BMW 325i. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list and engine-level fitment.
If worn pads are behind squealing, reduced braking, or a low pedal, this set replaces them on the rear axle. For even, balanced braking, replace the pads on both sides of the axle together as a matched set.
