Hello Gary. We have a LOT of Subarus in our customer base, and have used Akebono brake parts a few times without any problems. As I understand, they are the OE supplier for those cars. We actually use far more of Napa premium or Adaptive One brake parts, and we rarely have quality issues, mostly squeak / squeal noises if we do.
