Akebono at Rockauto

BrandonT · 04-06-2014, 07:58 PM

'09 base model here, looking to do pads soon. Car is a DD and I like the overall balance of performance of the OEM pads so was looking to just use those. I figured a Nissan dealer would be high priced so I started pricing pads at Rockauto to compare. Thing is there are a number of Akebono pads to choose from. Anyone know which is OEM version?

Anyone know what model line Akebono the OEM pad is, or what the other model lines Rockauto carries offer over OEM?

the brand names are listed in the description, mostly raybestos, bendix, wagner, etc. they also have economy, daily driver, and performance sections. pads for base say that as well as those for sport package. as for the akebono pads listed on rockauto click the more info next to the pad and it gives the OEM part numbers and what model the pad is for.

I get all that, what I want to know is which of those Akebono's listed is the actual pad that comes on the car from the factory (if any). The "alternative/OEM part number" (whatever that means) lists 5-10 numbers, they can't all be the OEM part.
