Engineered with a focus on noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) control, the Akebono ProACT ACT1539 front disc brake pad set uses an OE-validated, application-specific ceramic formulation designed for braking performance. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2010-2018 Subaru Forester, 2012-2014 Subaru Outback and 2010-2016 Subaru Impreza, as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of Subaru, Scion and Toyota models and their engine details.

  • Ceramic formulation: OE-validated and application-specific, developed for the vehicles this set is cataloged for.
  • Precision-cut pressure plates: each pad is built on a precision-cut pressure plate.
  • Engineered chamfers and slots: scientifically engineered to support braking performance and NVH control.
  • Akebono background: Akebono Brake Corporation describes itself as the originator of ceramic brake technology and an original equipment brand installed on many vehicle models. It runs technical and R&D centers in Japan, the United States and France.

These Akebono ProACT ultra premium ceramic brake pads come from a company focused on friction material development and NVH analysis. Brake pads wear with use. Squealing or grinding when braking, friction material that looks thin, or longer stopping distances are signs the front pads may need replacing. Inspect the rotors at the same time. Follow the vehicle's service procedure when installing Akebono ProACT ceramic brake pads.
