Brake discs GiroDisc or MEYLE
I'd buy a set of Girodisc rotors. They will last 10 times longer than crap audi rotors.
Pros: last 10 times longer
Cons: crap audi rotors
Vehicle:
Audi
Definitely approaching end of life. I wouldn’t have a safety concern just yet but you’re getting close. Go with Girodisc for your next set. They’re more expensive but they are amazing.
Pros: amazing
Cons: more expensive
Reliability and safety are my main concerns right now, so I also have Girodisc rotors
Pros: reliability and safety
Vehicle:
Porsche
Almost every car in our PCA club runs GiroDiscs, even the GT and RS cars. Never heard a single complaint, and love them on my C2 and GT3.
Pros: no complaints, love them
Vehicle:
Porsche 911
We are on our fifth weekend with our girodisc two piece rotors. Yes they are expensive, but they are worth it. They are so much better with heat management.
Pros: better heat management
Cons: expensive
Follow up after my track day: The Girodiscs + Pagids were amazing. Tons of bite, and zero fade, plus plenty of pedal feel after two days of running hard at VIR.
Pros: tons of bite, zero fade
I have had great success with Girodisc rotors this summer. I have been using Ferodo DS2500 pads for a few years and love them, but rotor temperatures would hit 800+ degrees after track sessions and conventional rotors, like Stop Tech, developed surface cracking and maybe a bit of warp. Girodisc rotor temps have been around 550 degrees after sessions this summer.
Pros: lower rotor temperatures, great success
Cons: surface cracking, bit of warp
I upgraded slightly by going with GLI brakes front and rear. Did basic Meyle rotors with Akebono ceramic pads. Couldn't be happier.
Pros: nice OEM option
I use them. Hard to say if they’re better than stock but they’re cheaper
Pros: cheaper than stock
Cons: performance similar to stock
I bought my Meyle rotors and installed them end of September last year, about 10-11 months ago. They are completely worn out already and need to be replaced.
Cons: completely worn out
