Brake pads Textar or WAGNER

I used the Wagner QuickStop. They were affordable and have been fine so far

i use wagner at my shop. never had an issue in the 6 years i've been using them.

Second upgrade to Wagner Thermo quiet brake pads and rotors.

I just changed my rear breaks and rotors on my 2018 limited and will be doing the fronts next week, I have always used Wagner Breaks and rotors. I have been using them for 20 years and 5 of those vehicles have been jeeps with zero complaints.

Wagner OEX. It's built on a galvanized steel backing plate so it doesn't rust like the painted ones. It also uses a mechanical attachment system to hold the friction material instead of glue, so it won't crack/detach like the cheap pads.

front brake pads (textar) for gti with performance pack, bolts, anti-squeal, grease; normally $70+

The rest (brake pads), I guess this is OEM but if you go to Sharjah and buy the parts yourself, I am confident you can get much lower prices, especially if you buy aftermarket such as Textar which is a OEM supplier.

Brake rotors are ATE and pads are Textar.

My factory textar pads would do this after a rain, or whenever it was humid out after about 50000 miles. I replaced them with some hawk hps pads and zimmerman rotors, no more squeak now! Although I am not in love with the Hawk HPS pads, a lot of people recommend them, and while I do agree they bite pretty good when they've got some heat in them, the cold bite is actually pretty bad for a "street" pad.

Textar is hot garbage these days unfortunately
