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.

Pros: super bite, modulation, power
Cons: loud as hell
Vehicle: Audi TT RS

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.

Pros: little dust, stop this good

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.

Pros: great for track
Cons: noisy on the street

Driving with the Carbotech 1521(front) for 3 weeks,now. They,definitely,don't have the OEM grasp and power. For everyday driving, they're ok, however... The big plus,no dust,no dust at all.

Pros: no dust at all
Cons: less grasp and power

I tried the carbotech 1521 to try to get silent street pads with better bite but no dice, it’s the same as the OEM akebonos

Cons: same as OEM, no better bite
Part number: 1521
