Akebono ProACT Disc Brake Pad Set P/N:ACT1286A
Upgrade your Hyundai Elantra brake pad setup with the Akebono ProACT Ultra-Premium Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Set (ACT1543A), a front-axle pad set that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2011-2016 Hyundai Elantra, 2013-2014 Hyundai Elantra Coupe, 2013-2016 Hyundai Elantra GT, 2012-2016 Hyundai Veloster, 2014-2017 Kia Forte, 2013-2016 Kia Forte Koup and 2013-2017 Kia Forte5 (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level detail). Built with Akebono's OE-validated, application-specific ceramic formulation, it's engineered for quiet, low-dust stops during everyday street driving.
Worn pads may signal themselves with squealing, reduced stopping response, or a thin remaining friction layer. For even, balanced braking, replacing both front pads as a matched set is recommended.

The ceramic formulation is designed for low dust, quiet operation, and a smooth, consistent pedal feel during everyday street driving, with engineered chamfers and slots for NVH control.
How do I know when to replace my brake pads?
Signs the pads may need replacing include squealing, reduced stopping response, or a thin remaining friction layer. Diagnose the cause before ordering, as symptoms can involve other components.
Should I replace both sides at once?
The set is for the front axle. Replacing both front pads together as a matched pair is recommended for even, balanced braking, though it's a best practice rather than a hard requirement.
