What brake pads should i use on a g37s vert

Hi guys, i just bought a g37s vert and my brakes are squeaking on cold startup when i reverse out of the garage. The cars got 44k miles and im thinkin theyre the orignal brakes.

Want to buy some akebonos on amazon but cant find the specific one for the g37s. Anyone know a comparable part number or brand on amazon? I have 5% on amazon rewards so trying to buy there. Thanks!

Check your pad thickness, mileage alone won't really reflect if you need new pads. Pretty common to get that squeaking when cold too. Akebono ProAct pads are a good choice for the big sport brakes if indeed your pads are worn.

Try doing a few hard stops in a safe area. It may stop the squeaking issue. But the Akebono pads are a good choice if you're not canyon carving or hitting the track. I've been tempted to try the Performance Akebono pads myself actually. Just out of curiosity.

The ProAct Akebono part number for verts is ACT1346 (ProAct) and for the Performance Akebono it's ASP1346.
