Brake pads Zimmermann or Centric

That's probably the kit I'd go with for my GLI. Again, as a daily driver... it meets the needs. The semi-metallic pads work good in many different temp ranges. However, semi-metallic pads also produce more brake dust, so you'll get more debris on your rotors faster. One of the other downsides is that they're more aggressive on the braking rotor because they're metallic, so you'll need to check your rotors more often for thinning.

I have the Centric Posi-Quiet on our Atlas - the most dust-free pad I've ever used but of course that comes at the price of not being able to handle heat.

Centric ceramic brake pads.

I bought the Zimmerman kit with ceramic pads from FCPEuro for $530 front and rear and did the work myself.

I’m a big fan of Centric rotors and pads. To me they’re in the category of OEM+ and they’re still affordable.

I buy a lot of denso parts, gates or continental generally for belts and such. Centric for brakes.

IMO do not put anything OEM on the car as a replacement. Find something with a better pad/rotor combo that doesn't leave deposits Ilike Centric stuff a lot with the Ceramic pads. Good combo

Centric ceramic brake pads

I switched to Centric PosiQuiet Ceramic Pads and not only they brake better, but produces little to no dust.

Just did the rear brakes on my wife’s subaru, the dealership was back ordered on the OEM pads and had centric ceramics.
