Brake pads Centric or OEM Honda
I got them installed and the hardest part was the dam clips they are so hard to compress to slide them in. I had to juggle them sideways. Anyone had this problem? I needed a second hand. They feel great! They are so much thicker than stock. I fallowed this guy's video: Yes I had to compress the Pistons.
Pros: feel great, thicker than stock
Cons: hard to install clips

The Centric PosiQuiet ceramics are WAY better than the OEM pads, no nasty hard-to-modulate initial bite. Rather the Centric's are quite linear in their force-to-braking ratio. I just upgraded my '18 GTI to a '19 R and have a set on order.
Pros: better than OEM, linear ratio
Cons: no nasty initial bite

I went with the Centric PosiQuiet Ceramic's too and am very happy with them Akebono does not have an application for my 2018 GTI SE but the PosiQuiet's feel the same to me as the Akebono's I had on my last two Audis.
Pros: very happy with them

Continuing to drive on them this way will not make the pad deposits go away. Trust me. I have the same ceramic pads on our 3 vehicles (golf r included). Centric posi quiets. They are great pads with great cold bite and minimal dust. But if you overheat them and stay on the brake pedal at a stop, like any other pad, it will embed pad material onto the rotor.
Pros: great cold bite, minimal dust
Cons: embed pad material
