Akebono ProACT Disc Brake Pad Set P/N:ACT1543A
Quiet, low-dust everyday braking is what the Akebono ProACT Disc Brake Pad Set ACT1697 is built for. This front-axle ceramic pad set installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2016-2022 Acura ILX, 2013-2018 Acura RDX, 2014-2020 Acura RLX, 2016-2017 Honda Accord, and 2018-2020 Honda Civic — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-specific coverage.
Compared with conventional semi-metallic pads, this ceramic set is engineered for whisper-quiet stops, ultra-low dust, and a smooth, consistent pedal feel during everyday street driving. Akebono is the original-equipment brand of choice on hundreds of models and a leader in advanced brake and friction-material development with a focus on NVH analysis and control. For balanced, even braking, it's best practice to replace the pads on both sides of the axle together as a matched set and inspect your rotors during the job.
