Put on all new pads and rotors after the last guy cheaper out, it’s a huge difference. Almost not brake dust and they have a good pedal feel.
Switched to EBC red fronts. A bit surprised over the dust level comparing it to previous MK7 GTIs and GLIs I had them on. Seems close to OEM pad dust on the MK8s
I have EBC Greens on my '95 miata with 80k miles and 3mm on each corner due to spirited driving.
Given that and the new ceramic brake pads by Akebono and the car is now very quiet.
The EBC RPX pads are their race ones and are incredibly good for the price. They last a long time and have serious bite. I have these paired with their fully floating rotors and callipers and have not had a single issue in a year of tracking my e46 m3.
I run EBC Redstuff pads, the brake dust is very minimal.
I like Akebono ceramics.
they held up fantastic. I drove to the track, and drive home after the track day; no issues.
I’ve been using EBC Yellowstuff on my mk7 gti for track days and daily driving. My first front set lasted 2.7 days (basically dissolving in my last run on one side). However, I’ve thought brake feel is good and I’ve now run a new set on new rotors for 4 track days. They look fine?
I tried them one time on my track car and they were terrible.
