Brake pads TRW or STOPTECH

STOPTECH Brake pads

To me it looks like brake pad material on your rotors due to your street pads melting. Slap a new set a cheap pads on there from Autozone or something and drive it for a week or two that material should come off. As long as you don’t have vibration while braking they should still be good. Just make sure to use track pads next time. I personally run StopTech 309 pads because they’re good on track and street

Pros: good on track and street
Cons: street pads melting

I run StopTech Sport pads on my E92 M3 and they hold up very well for a dual duty pad. I prefer them over the other options listed.

Pros: hold up very well

TRW Brake pads

I didn't touch the calipers, I thought the calipers were ATE, but could be TRW. I only changed out rears at this time, fronts are still the same. The pads are TRW ceramic something or others that came with zimmerman rotors in the cheapish FCP kit.

Vehicle: Volkswagen

The StopTechs Sports are the better track and street option, I used the front pads in my E46 M3 for 10k+ street miles and a few trackdays. They have good feel and modulation. Just had a little bit of fade towards the end of a 25 minute session.

Pros: good feel, good modulation, street and track option
Cons: some fade

TRW Brake pads

I like the stock TRW performance pack pads on Brembo rotors. Stock PP brakes are more than good enough for a daily driver that gets occasional spirited driving. I also got 65,000 miles on the original set, which is a bonus

Pros: long life, good performance
Mileage: 65000 km

One of my inner rear pads went at 110k. FCP euro has a full brake kit front and rear rotors with Zimmerman and TRW ceramic pads for around $400. It's OEM style replacement, so no real upgrade performance to speak but it's a daily not a track car and the price was right.

Pros: price was right
Cons: no real upgrade performance
Mileage: 110000 km

TRW Brake pads

They look about par for an economy, aftermarket brake pad. I use TRW on my beaters pretty often. Mine often don't come wrapped in anything other than a rubber band. They aren't OEM quality, but for 20 bucks a pair...I'll deal with it and have never had an issue.

Pros: inexpensive, usable
Cons: not OEM quality
