EBC rotors (made in England) and Akebono pads (US). My mechanic thought that the rotors were OEM. Nice and thick and able to be cut once. Akebono pads are frequently OEM, quiet, long-lasting and dust free. Only coins this combo costs more than most.
EBC has worked well for us on 3 cars already. When time comes our 2020 Tiguan will most likely get the BSD Series Sport Rotor w/Ultra Quiet V Slot Configuration. Had those and the Red Pads on an 03 GS300 and Red Stuff brake pads with some generic slotted and dimple rotors on the back. Excellent and smooth!
I added in spark plugs and brake rotors and pads too since I was on factory brakes still. Brakes could have probably lasted another 15K miles but they’re 5 years old, lasted 100K miles
I bought EBC slotted rotors and Akebono euro ceramic pads from FCPEuro. They have a lifetime warranty and are hands down the best brakes I have ever had on all of my cars
I personally went with some EBC rotors and pads. Front and back with new brake lines cost me about 1k but I\u2019m tuned and plan on making the car even faster.
I just installed EBC slotted rotors and Akebono ceramic pads front and rear on my '15 Passat. You can believe I will be warrantying them replacing them through FCP when the time comes.
I've had the EBC reds up front with the larger A8 rotors. No dust, no vibrations and they have lasted a long time.
The only weak point of the driving experience can be the brakes. The stock rotors are not totally up to the kind of driving that car demands. This is easily remedied by aftermarket rotors and they are super cheap.
For instance, on my Honda Fit, I went aftermarket on the brake rotors because the factory ones had a habit of warping with my driving.
I've been running EBC rotors for a few years now. They are very loud when braking. Sounds kinda like a rattlesnake. I drive with my windows down alot, so I hear it. I probably won't ever get the EBC again.
