Akebono Ceramic Brake Pad Set - Rear for BMW E36 318 — Overview

These are Akebono's ceramic friction compound rear pads cut for the E36 318i and 318is, covering the smaller rear caliper setup that car runs versus the six-cylinder cars. Ceramic compound means lower dust and quieter operation than the semi-metallic OEM-style pads most people replace these with, which matters if you're keeping an E36 as a daily or a clean street car.
