Brake pads OEM Porsche or Mintex

My 993 C4S with “big reds” squealed when I did a brake job using aftermarket pads (Textar OEM replacements). After putting up with it for a few years, I swapped them back to Porsche Genuine pads. Squeal was gone instantly.

I switched to OEM pads and bedded them in with a few heavy stopping cycles and no squeals since.

I found the GT3’s brakes to be very easy to modulate. They bite very quickly for carbon ceramics and give you the impression that they could bail you out of most situations. Since the GT3 feels so damn planted, braking also feels like a total non-event. You don’t feel the weight shifting forward in a dramatic fashion or anything like that, brake engagement feels very immediate.

I'm a Mintex Red Box fan, I also upgrade to AutoTech drilled/vented rotors since I drive like I stole it. 2009 Jetta driver.

I just replaced brakes on all corners and saved about 50% vs dealership and they used OEM parts.

The mid-engine handling is amazing out of the box and only needs brake pads and fluid to be happy at the track all day.

I replaced both my front brake discs and pads a month ago and have driven about 1075 miles. On the passenger side, one of the grooves has gone but the other remains and I feel like its getting worse although not 100% sure.

Vanno verificate le pinze, c'\u00e8 sicuramente un problema di scorrimento.

Macan GTS’ are going through hell right now with PSCB brakes. Plenty of tickets just saying to replace the pads and rotors and customer to monitor lmao.

I didn't like the Mintex Redbox pads on my Passat. They overheated too quickly and felt spongy.
