Owner reviews for brake pads

Anyway, the XP12's and 8's are freakin' awesome. Super bite, modulation and power but they're loud as hell on the street. Personally, I don't mind so I drive everywhere screaming like a banshee.

i have hawk ceramic brake pads front and rear along with ss brake lines on my 2012 golf R. I got them from ecs tuning and they work great! nice improvement over stock.

I am on Hawk HPS and I absolutely love them, great bite. Buddies in there STI's were shocked at how fast my car stopped and how hard the brakes bit. Very low dusting, takes about 5X as long to see dust as the stock pads.

I LOOOOOOOOOVE my 1521's. Also they look snazzy.

Carbotech 1521's FTW.... Literally you will have to wash your car before you will have to wash your wheels. Unbelievable that pads make so little dust and stop this good.

Love me some AP brakes on Exiges and Evoras. I once got stuck in stop and go traffic in an Evora after it spent all day lapping Laguna. No squealing, uneven pad deposits, cracks in the cross drilling...nothing. They're basically fade free too, which is super impressive.

1521s are insane. They really create next to zero dust.

Yeah I love the setup so much on the track I actually leave them on the car on the street and just deal with the noise from the Carbotechs.

Yeah use OEM rotors with DS2500 pads. That will be a great setup! Actually, DS2500 might be a bit too much for street, since they are pretty dusty and a little noisy.

Yes the brakes fit NO wheels really fit over them. - Huge spacers will fix this - not good for your ride. - Brake balance will be grossly forward biased. Lesson: Buy a brake kit designed for your vehicle or just get better pads.
