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.

  • Ceramic friction formula: OE-validated and application-specific, delivering a smooth, consistent pedal feel with low dust during daily city and highway driving.
  • Precision-cut pressure plates: machined backing plates support the friction material for even wear.
  • Engineered chamfers and slots: scientifically shaped for braking performance and NVH (noise, vibration and harshness) control.
  • Akebono heritage: from the originators of ceramic brake technology and an OE brand installed on more than 400 models.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which vehicles does the Akebono ProACT ACT1543A fit?

It's a front-axle set for the 2011-2016 Hyundai Elantra, 2013-2014 Elantra Coupe, 2013-2016 Elantra GT, 2012-2016 Veloster, 2014-2017 Kia Forte, 2013-2016 Forte Koup and 2013-2017 Forte5. Confirm your trim in the Buyer's Guide.

Are these front or rear brake pads?

This is a front disc brake pad set for the listed applications. Check your vehicle to confirm which axle you're servicing before ordering.

What are the benefits of these Akebono ProACT ceramic brake pads?

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.
