Brake discs ATE or MEYLE
I'm running the coated Meyle rotors and have been pleased with them over the last year. They appeared to be well made out of the box and fit well, especially for the price. The anticorrosive treatment is holding up well too.
I already have the ATE Premium One rotors and Hawk pads on my 1982 Caddy. They don't have the initial bite but are good once they heat up, but still require adequate pedal pressure to ensure an emergency stop. The ATE Premium One rotors are great especially in the rain because they absolutely have that initial bite.
Look for some brembo or ATE rotors from an OE supplier
No, the Corrado G60 11" 4-bolt rotors bolt right onto the MKIII 10.1" 4-bolt hubs. I bolted on Corrado G60 Girling 54 11" calipers and Meyle Corrado 11" 4-bolt rotors to my 97 Jetta GT without any problems at all.
I've just finished upgrading my 97 MKIII Jetta GT from 10.1" to 11" Corrado G60 brakes, I know what you're going through, because I've made all the mistakes.
Hawk HPS with the rear pads almost worn & the front pads were about 70% worn---new rotors all around. Just for kicks, I decided to get ATE Slotted rotors, tyrol caliper bushings & a fresh fluid flush....
When I changed the original rotors on my Jetta they required a hell of a fight to get them off. I put anti-sieze on the hub to ensure that would not happen again. When I changed them this past weekend, the rotors came off no problem at all which was nice.
I just bought and am DIY installing a set of Ate PremiumOne discs and pads for the front on my wagon. They've got a coating similar to the original rotors - I'll report back once I get 'em on.
I'm running PBR Delux pads, rotors are Brembo Fronts, ATE rears. Got whole set up for around $225-250 from GetCoolParts a year or so ago..they often have sales...and were doing so on the rotors at the time so I'm sure prices now are a bit more. Front pads made some noise...not squeal, more like a rattle (yes I double checked the anti rattle clips)...just about the time I was gonna pull the pads and apply anti rattle shims...problem went away...been working great ever since. There is rust on the nonbraking surfaces, but no staining etc. so I'm not goin to the trouble of painting the rotor hats etc.
I am getting ready to do my brakes, rotors and pads. Mintex Red on all 4 corners and ATE slotted up front and OEM on the rear. Car shakes pretty badly when applying the brakes at 65 mph or higher...warped.
