Brake pads EBC or Ferodo

Now I have a 19 R DSG, and I've tracked it twice (Summit Point and VIR) with nothing more than new rotors, Ferodo brake pads and Motul 500 fluid. I never had any overheating issues with either the brakes or the oil, but both weekends were cooler weather.

Switch to EBC red pads if you aren’t gonna track it

I went with the EBC red stuff pads on my F90 and so far it’s been great. I don’t track the car, and I’d say my stopping power feels no different than the stock pads. I just hope they last forever like the stock lol.

Swap for EBC red pads and you’ll never see dust again. Good cold pad bite + super quiet. Big step up from the factory bmw “sport” pads.

I’d recommend DS2500’s. They are a bit noisy for everyday but the performance is worth it. Nice and predictable feel

I have personally bought Ferodo brake pads from AF1racing for my 2022 SR/S. Pads work great

The stock pads that came on my RS3 were god awful for brake dust. After 2 days of normal highway driving they looked like crap. They also hit the wear sensor after only 15k miles which is bananas for a mostly highway driven car. I bought a set with a new pair of 2 piece rotors and the difference is night and day. Braking is much stronger and zero fade even in more demanding conditions (the two piece rotors obviously help with that) I’ve had them on for 25k miles and they have very little wear on them. I’d definitely buy them again. That said, be warned that for like 500-1000 miles after they are installed, your wheels will be the dustiest you’ve ever seen. Once that wears off, they run very clean.

Just did EBC Redstuff and EBC USR slotted rotors on my GTI and they have been great.

For rotors I have cross drilled brembos, they are pretty nice. And for pads I have EBC yellow stuff which is a track pad and I can’t tell any difference over oem. Just a shit ton of brake dust which I’m sick and tired of.

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.
