Brake pads Brembo or EBC
I used EBC yellow stuff. A little loud but great pads.
Brembo pads are better than oem and cheaper through rock auto. Recommend oem rotors though.
I did EBC red stuff and replaced pads all around at ~50k miles. My rotors weren't bad at all so I kept the old ones on. My pads coulda gone a few more years also. No complaints!
Slotted are ok drilled are not going to hold up to daily driving. I tried stopteh , ebc and brembo all cracked at the drill points prematurely. I have a 2009 crew cab sport and use it to tow a Dodge Viper. EBC slotted and greens are what I use and have gotten the best mileage out of that pairing. The original mopar brakes lasted the longest but the greens decrease braking distance when towing IMO.
We use (and sell / stock) the Brembo rotors and sport (HP2000) pads. Better performance than stock, perfectly streetable and equally capable for track days or tarmac rally. Great value too
I run yellows and they are brilliant. The stopping distance is about 50% more. Been doing a fair bit of miles and they dont seem to be wearing out excessively. I wouldnt go for anything more aggressive for daily use though you need cold stopping power for when somone pull into your lane during long motorway trips in the rain.
My oem S6 6 piston brembos with EBC redstuff pads are great
I just did brakes on my '13 S4, went with EBC OE Rotors and their Red Stuff pads. The red stuff is definitely low dust compared to the crap stock pads. Very grippy on initial bite and totally silent no squealing.
I have ebc reds. I still get lots of brake dust and I prefer the bite of oem pads more. Not to say reds are bad, they just didn't meet my expectations for a daily.
So I screwed up when I ordered the \"flywheel bolts\" for the trans swap. Reordered the flex plate bolts that would have been for the auto trans I pulled out.
