Brake pads Brembo or OEM Porsche
As for your question, I have Brembo pads on my M6 and 650i and brake dust is minimal in comparison to these. I still scrub my wheels once a month but it\u2019s a way better interval compared to the old ones.
At 50k, my rotors and stock pads were shot. The brembo pads are very aggressive and eat the rotor quickly. If you are racing or spirited stopping often, they will go quick. I went with power stop replacements and I am very happy. No more rotor click and much less brake dust. I daily drive mine, so most of the miles are pretty easy. 2020 spwb charger.
My Polestar 2 has 3 levels of OPD which is awesome. My brakes are still fairly new and I have 34800 miles on it as of today. I very rarely use the friction brakes unless I take it to the track and thats when the Brembos brakes all around really work.
Brembos I put on have been amazing so far
I've got the rs5 with ceramic front brakes, I'm looking to get the pads replaced, back ones are 100 for a genuine set, but front ones are nearly 1000 for a genuine set?! I inspect my front pads and see they are made by brembo and have audi branding on it. A little bit a research and I find OE equivalent pads from brembo for only 240. They felt the exact same to me on the track.
brembo. better than the bmw ones
Had the same issue with my 987.2 S, ended up upgrading to a GT3 master cylinder and brake ducts, giro disc rotors and RS29 pads. Obviously running decent brake fluid and change it regularly. It’s now great and can handle many laps of Oulton Park without fading.
I'm running a Trueno, which has the factory Brembos. With the stock pads at a track with a decent amount of braking demand (at which I've had more severe brake issues in several other cars), I get about half way into a session before they start to fade... not bad, but enough to notice reduced performance (firm pedal, just longer braking zones). There's no doubt that running an actual track pad that's meant for the heat will completely resolve the issue.
we mostly use brembo, as most other brands quality has gone to shit recently
My brakes are overheating when I break the car from around 190kph (118mph) to around 30kph (19mph), I smell the brakes burning and see a lot of brake dust on the wheel. Even the brakes feel a bit spongy for a while after, but it firms back up.
