I found Raybestos Element 3 pads and rotors were great on my 2011. The pads have a higher friction rating than the OE pads but still low dust and great feel and braking. Terrific value. The rotors are nice as well.
I run Pagid Street+ pads with DBA rotors. I like them
Pagid every time. Never had a problem with any car I’ve put them on.
Back in December, I had discs and pads replaced all around on my 2018 Octy vRS. My local garage was happy to fit supplied parts. With the discount Halfords were running at the time, I've had Pagid discs/pads fitted. No rattles, no squeaks, and they stop me when they need to.
Just bought Pagid discs and pads for my Suzuki Swift. mix of main and rural roads in NW England, plenty of wet, mud and hills.
Yes, decent enough. Just changed discs and pads on my Passat and no issues.
Have had very good experiences with Raybestos Element 3. Excellent price as well.
be mindful with those pagid pads. they’ve been making noise on a lot of cars we’ve put them on recently. massive chucks of metals in them. still stop great but may make some noise
You will need brake cooling/ducts or will need to remove the dust shield to get more airflow (or both), went through a brand new set of rear Pagid RS29 endurance pads in less than a weekend in July when I first got the first F80 years ago. The heat did a number on them in the afternoons with ambient temps over 90 and all the 150ish to 40ish and 130ish to 30ish on the back and front straights respectively
I got Raybestos pads+rotors back in December… 4mo later and already vibrating when braking so prob warped the rotors, and the pads already squeal at low speed braking.
