Get the Akebono ProAct pads, and good quality rotors. I bought Brembo rotors last time, and they worked well.
I know nobody asked about parts, but I’ve been happy with Brembo and Zimmerman coated rotors, and ATE ceramic pads. They aren’t grabby like the stock setup but don’t seem any less strong. Smoother and easier to modulate.
I just changed my front rotors and pads recently. I bought Brembo 26300VA000 rotors with Hawk HB616Z.607 pads. In total, I spent $450.89 USD for the fronts alone. It was simple and straightforward to change.
I have a 2016 300h and was actually doing the rotors just today. Idk if the 350 and 300h share braking components but if they do be aware that the rear rotors may need their parking brake adjusted to even be able to get the rotors off. That little rubber grommet has to be at the 6:00 position and you have to inch a gear down to adjust it.
I went with: Brembo rotors all around 288mm front and 232mm rear Tyrol Sport Front Brake Stiffening kit DFC track pads(similar to Hawk HP) I still need to do SS lines and a fluid change, but my car stops very well for street driving. I will be swapping my pads for Hawk Performance Ceramic's though only due to brake dust.
It depends on the brand. I got some stop tech rotors from Amazon no issues
I got Stoptech slotted and drilled rotors for like $250, and their carbon ceramic middle pads for like $150 front and rear. They are awesome.
Just finished installing these. Added EBC blue stuff and APR lines. Motul 600 fluid. I should add I did the same in the back but just went with one-piece stoptechs. notes: they are awesome and to top it off they do look amazing.
I keep having an issue with the disks warping, I decided "why not just let the dealer do it and go OEM?", they wanted over $600... for just FRONT rotors and pads, tiny Corolla brakes. I can get the quality Brembo kit for 1/3 of that.
Hab am Passat B8 vorne Brembo Scheiben und die sind unfassbar schlecht. Deutlicher ungenutzter Rand an der Bremsscheibe und massiver Rostansatz. Da waren/sind selbst die Bosch Scheiben besser.
