Brake pads EBC or JURID

Get EBC Red Stuffs, not Green Stuffs. The Red's will give you better stopping power with MUCH less brake dust.

I went with the Red Stuff pads and they have been noise free and stop on a dime. Very low dust, especially when used with the armor all wheel protector.

I went from stock pads to redstuff, and the brake dust is about 1/4 to 1/3 of what it was. The stock pad's dust was really hard to remove as well. The redstuff pad dust, the little that is there come off easily. I do find that the redstuff pads quickly heat up the calipers though and they tend to fade more then with the stock pads.

I can tell the pads are fairly recent and are Jurid brand so I know they've been replaced recently.

I used disks from JC Whitney and pads from EBC (EBC red stuff, nice, came with all sensors, anti squeak pads, a little packet of anti seize for the caliper pins).

I can tell you that after having my EBC slotted rotors and greenstuff pads on for several months, I am very happy with the upgrade. The setup I have now bites better than I could have hoped for.

I'm a big fan of EBC red stuff pads, IMO they are the best and actually have to go through testing to get a cert number that proves they do EVERYTHING better than the OEM pads

Just today I changed the rear brake pads and rotors on my 2004 Jetta GLI 1.8t. I got some new Zimmerman rotors and EBC Red Stuff pads on now, and obviously that fixed the grinding.

I had this issue with Hawk HPS, and had to tap on the brakes in heavy rain often. Have EBC Red now, they don't do this but they also don't stop the car well period.

dunno if same formula on Touareg pads, but they are HORRIBLE on my A4. They are low dust, but fade terribly - much worse than stock.
