For normal driving I'd recommend either ATE Ceramic pads, paired with ATE, painted or coated discs.

Meiner Erfahrung nach bremst das genauso gut wie andere Bremsen, das Problem ist nach 10tkm sportlicher Fahrweise sind Bel\u00e4ge und Scheiben leer, normale Fahrweise max 20tkm. Felgen Kohlschwarz weil nat\u00fcrlich mega viel Bremsstaub in kurzer Zeit.

Pros: bremst genauso gut

Cons: Bel\u00e4ge und Scheiben leer

Mileage: 10000 km

I'm now on Endless ME20 pads, and they last longer, but still only about 20 sessions in the front. Rears are lasting maybe 2-3X as long. So I'm guessing that I am just overheating the fronts and getting above their happy temps. These pads are much harder on the rotors as well, and hard to get affordably in the USA.

Pros: last longer

Cons: overheating fronts, hard on rotors, hard to get affordably

Vehicle: Porsche

Cons: melted onto the rotors
