Rating 4.5

The top of the scale on streetable pads are full racing compounds that work good enough cold to be usable on the street. Ferodo DS-2500 and Carbotech Panther Plus are in this category. They can be very dusty and are often noisey, but they have the most grip you can get on the street.

Pros: most grip on street
Cons: very dusty, often noisey

As for Wilwoods - they are good but require more maintance due to the lack of a dust boot/seals on the pistons - unless they've changed that now. I had StopTech's on my TT and they were excellent. Of course i'd use Porterfield RS4 pads rather than the stock Axxis that comes with them, but I was very impressed with the fit and finish as well as overall power and modulation of the StopTechs.

Pros: excellent fit and finish, overall power and modulation
Cons: more maintance, lack of dust boot
Vehicle: Audi TT

I have the Stoptech 332mm front brakes with stainless lines all around, I used Pagid Orange for the track event. They definitely performed as advertised. I had just a hair of brake fade and that is only because I was over driving the brakes. I had all the confidence in the world in those brakes.

Pros: performed as advertised
Cons: hair of brake fade
Vehicle: Audi S4
