I've bought four sets of Akebonos spaced years apart. The only set that didn't go in the trash after a month was used on a car where I needed to adjust the rear brake bias (and they've impacted brake feel enough there that I'm changing out calipers to let me use a better pad mix).
Are they better than Axxis Deluxe Plus? A little. If you care more about brake dust than how your brakes feel, the Akebonos are good. But if you hate soggy brake feel, you will hate the Akebonos. And if you like the Akebonos, the Deluxe Plus produces even less dust and doesn't feel that much worse.
It's all subjective. I've even noted in this thread that the Akebonos *work fine*. They just feel soggy.
