I also got Zimmermans with the new Saab OEM (Akebono) pads. Finally NO MORE DUST. I am so happy now. I have not been washing the wheels in 3 months and they still look clean. The old OEM pads would make the wheels black in a week.
I not so impressed with the Zimmermans rotors. Is it really so hard to galvanize the rotors? Rust does not look good. And since there is no more brake dust the rust is very visible. If I would do it again I would go with the OEM Saab rotors. Brembo rotors are not galvanized either.
Akebono Euro Ceramic may be the same as Akebono OEM - but do you want to test it? The price difference is not so large.
