The > Akebono pads must be a bit higher quality. They supposedly are; they certainly are more expensive. That's why I really don't want to grind them down if I don't have to. But if I ground about 1/32 or less off each side they'd probably fit. It's close, but even tapping with a hammer I can't get them to slide on; I just start gouging the pads on the rotor edge.
