Reviews of TRW brake pads

TRW Ceramic pads, look identical to OEM, since TRW makes the OEM pads. Feel same as stock, way down on dust.

Finally got around to getting my brakes installed. I've barely put 10 miles on the setup, and the improvement is quite noticeable. Initial bite is improved, and much less effort is required for the same braking force.

In an effort of "lets start over with the basics" we changed the front pads with new TRW OEM ones and the thing was back to normal awesome braking. This Van should stop with alacrity and ABS should kick in when you really step on the brakes.

I've been using stock pads on the GTI; TRW and Ate brands from the parts counter at my dealer. That was not a pre-planned choice but one I made after being completely surprised at the track performance of the pads. Yeah, they're soft, but they're remarkably consistent as long as I am too. They come back quickly from being overheated if I do miss a mark.
