Brake pads Brembo or POWER STOP
Im currently on Brembo Xtra with brembo pads and its really really good!
I put carbon ceramic brakes from power stop on my C63. They were an improvement over stock and best of all no dust.
I have on my front axle the AP Racing CP7600 BBKs. Works like a charm especially with Brembo ceramic brake pads. Only downside is the rust-like brake dust that comes out of the ceramic pads, causing my black rims to look rusted when it isn't. Nothing a car wash can't solve.
15k miles on powerstop “street sport” whatever pads with raybestos painted and coated rotors. Powerstop shoes and drums in the rear. All well so far, hardware appeared quality, pads have a little more bite than whatever was on it when I bought it.

Absolutely love em, and I abuse them, they still last
I order from Brembo or Brembos's from rockauto, same as what came on the car at less than 50% of the Audi price
I did a 288mm to 312mm upgrade on my wife's Golf wagon and used cross drilled Brembos with Brembo pads. Love the brake feeling with good bite.
I have had great luck with the full ceramic power stop kit as well.
It came with Brembo brakes, I have used them for about 75k miles and they are starting to make terrible noise especially when cold. They were making noise since maybe 40k miles but everytime i asked dealers to check the brakes they said they are fine. Even right now they brake perfectly fine but they make awful noise until they heat up.
Those Brembo pads that cost $500 a set are total trash, too. They are low friction and still real dusty. I threw mine in the trash at like 2000 miles.
