Love the set up this is what I will be forced to do with my front 2 piece rotors in front will help with heat for sure and ceramic pads you will have zero issue's as all problems were cause by factory pads.

Pros: will help with heat
Cons: problems were cause by factory pads
Vehicle: Volkswagen

Get thicker ones (5.5mm). I also warped my stock ones and got Brembo supersports instead, I feel like they withstand whatever I throw at them.

Pros: withstand high heat
Cons: stock ones warped

My OEM Calipers are still looking good at 200k. I just put OEM pads and Brembo Rotors for less than 200 bucks. Next time I will be doing the 199 Caliper and Rotor Upgrade.

Pros: OEM calipers good at 200k
Mileage: 200000 km

BNT are good for brake stuff - they normally have two options, their cheaper brand and brembo. Did rotors and pads front and rear on an Audi A3 for $650 for brembo rotors and Bendix pads as an indication.

Pros: good for brake stuff

Mine are 288 fronts (yeah, I measured) and combined with the pitiful rears the whole systems is not (as I've read many times) "sufficient for daily driving". Too many times I've worried I won't stop in time. Too many times I've come down an average hill with definite fade that made me worry should an animal dart out in front of me. I want something akin to my GTI's brakes. Not something that will stop a freight train but just something I know will stop. And stop firm every time. Definitely OEM . I'd rather not have red but whatever I have, it will have to match front/rear. After reading the limited information I can find across multiple forums, nothing has mentioned swapping the front TDI brakes (if they are actually 310mm) over to a 2.5l. It would seem that if the caliper is the same 2.5 to TDI, all you would really need is the rotor and the TDI carrier, correct? Regarding the rears, nothing seems available straight off the OEM shelf, except GTI, correct? Any non-red options there?

Pros: stop firm every time
Cons: pitiful rears, definite fade, insufficient for daily driving

Shaking issues happened around 20k. Replace the front rotors 526+ tax, and rear rotors need to be replaced soon (30k)... The quality of the OEM part is not good

Cons: quality not good

Our rear rotors are garbage. The front seem fine but i can see rust marks for where my pads rest when i park it for the weekend. Im researching our incredibly limited options on rear rotors at the moment.

Cons: rear rotors are garbage
