I ran with Ferodo DS2500s. They work incredibly well for light track use (my street tires overheat before the brakes ever fade), they are dead silent, and, somehow, very low dust. They are more expensive than most other pads though and probably excessive for most people in their capabilities.
front - 9.4in vented rotors ferodo ds2500 fastroad pads rear - swapped to discs mk4 calipers ferodo ds2500 fastroad pads
I did install Ferodo pads as well as the brake fluid flush at local Audi Dealership, however I do have some pulsation when I brake from higher speed. It is non existent in the city driving but on the highway my brake pedal pulsates a bit and I don't like this.
overhauled the brakes(all 4 corners): -calipers(rebuild) -discs(brembo) -pads (ferodo ds2500)
The rear brake pads I use all the time are ferodo 2500, they are great for the track and don't make noise on the street.
I used Ferodo DS-2500 and Mintex Redbox on my 337, and that was my favorite brake setup of three VWs to date. Then there is my brother-in-law's 335i Sport My goal with the 337 was to delay ABS activation, as I thought that the rear was overbraked. I don't recall whether the new pad setup helped in that regard, but the DS-2500 improved the initial bite a lot.
I love me some blanks and Ferodo pads. But the pads aren't too budget friendly ($90 a set) and they've quite dirty, but the stopping power is awsome.
I got the upgrade, it's definitely noticeable from the stock 11.3 in the 1.8ts and vr6s - but really, if you want best stop for budget, just upgrade the rotors to slotted for heat dissapation and some good ferodo pads... but if you do upgrade, you'll notice difference in stopping - as well as your acceleration since you have more rotaional mass at that point...
Yeah use OEM rotors with DS2500 pads. That will be a great setup! Actually, DS2500 might be a bit too much for street, since they are pretty dusty and a little noisy.
Well, I was talking abou OEM rotors with DS2500 pads, not OEM pads. I replaced the stock pads after 30k wich was reasonable but DS2500s have much higher friction coeff.
