I swapped to Z26 pads a few months ago. I got sick and tired of the insane amount of dust from the stock brake pads. The Z26 pads offer enough street performance for sure. The amount they dust is a SIGNIFICANT amount less. I have taken the Z26 Pads to the Tail of the Dragon and I have not had issues. I also don't drive the car anywhere near the limits so if you plan on tracking it, the stock pads are probably better.

Pros: less dust, good street performance

I swapped in a set of Powerstop Z26 pads at around 5k miles and have loved them ever since. 1/4 of the brake dust and I notice no difference in performance which includes spirited driving and avoiding the occasional deer. I actually just replaced my first set of Z26s. They had about 60k miles on them with a little ways to go so they hold up well.

Pros: reduced brake dust, good performance
Mileage: 60000 km

When I had my ST, I did EBC Redstuff pads, and Geomet coated rotors. Low dust, great stopping power, but the pads are a little pricy. I recently moved on to a Golf R, and I wanted to try the Z23 Power Stop pads off Rockauto. I can say they’re pretty much indistinguishable from the Redstuff pads. They have a bed in procedure that you have to go do, otherwise they will feel meh. After bedding them in, they feel amazing!

Pros: low dust, great stopping power
Cons: pricey pads, bed-in procedure needed

POWER STOP Brake pads

I put powerstop pads and rotors on my truck about 100k miles ago. Still have those rotors, but have replaced the pads. They lasted as long as I would have expected.

Pros: long lasting rotors
Mileage: 100000 km

This was my only complaint with my car when it was new. I can't wrap my head around how they thought that amount of brake dust was acceptable.

I swapped in Powerstop pads and have been happy ever since.

Pros: happy with replacement
Cons: excessive brake dust

STOPTECH Brake pads

Stop tech pads have a lot of brake dust. I had them and hated them. I went with the power stop pads low dust on all four and powerstop drill and slotted rotors up front. I already had stop tech slotted in the rear.

Cons: lot of brake dust
