Brake pads Ferodo or Mintex

Buy Ferodo DS2500 brake pads then buy rotors according to your budget, forget about drilled rotors if anything go with slotted and if within your budget get two piece rotors in order to save unsprung weight.

Ferodo ds2500 is a great option. I’ve heard yellows are noisy/dusty. I’ve inhaled plumes of it first hand on the track.

Stock PP1 pads are Ferodo DS2500. Actually pretty good.

Just get standard oem supplier pads from someone like Mintex. They’re going to be everything you need for a daily driver.

Ferodo 3.12 pads ( 6 track days+? we will see)

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.

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

Many people don't like ferodo pads, but I use ds2500 for dual duty, but they can be hard to find. Just got to be careful getting off the highway with them when they are cold.

Up for sale are new Ferodo DS2500 brake pads for an MK7 Golf R. I had bought these to replace my noisy new Hawk pads, but have decided to just stick with the noisy hawk pads.

You wanna avoid mintex red box these days. The passat pads have a slight problem with burning up under hard braking.
