Now I have a 19 R DSG, and I've tracked it twice (Summit Point and VIR) with nothing more than new rotors, Ferodo brake pads and Motul 500 fluid. I never had any overheating issues with either the brakes or the oil, but both weekends were cooler weather.
I’d recommend DS2500’s. They are a bit noisy for everyday but the performance is worth it. Nice and predictable feel
I have personally bought Ferodo brake pads from AF1racing for my 2022 SR/S. Pads work great
Gyrodisc 2 piece rotors + Ferodo DS2500.
I have swapped between Ferodo DS2500 (street) and DS1.11 pads without issues. Just go slow to heat them up so you can get the transfer layer applied.
Zimmerman rotors and ferodo 2500ds pads. 5 months old and used in 4 hpde. Im upgrading to a more track duty pad (hawk dtc 70)
I have negotiated with SWMBO that for slightly more than what we would pay to have the dealer do just the rears I could put new slotted rotors (do not want drilled, slotted only), new Fedora DS2500 pads (have them on the FRS and love them) and coated stainless steel brake lines on all four corners and do the labor myself.
Previous discs and pads were OEM and the new ones are Ferodo. As mentioned previously, the sound was there with the OEM parts as well.
I track the car and use the DS2500 pads with DOT 4 brake guild. Let me tell you this from personal experience, the stock pads fade real quick. After 2 sessions or so (15mins sessions), the brakes get real spongy.
Factory tires are garbage, but good all seasons and it gets around in the snow fairly well. My rear brake pad that had little wear, fell apart while driving in the mountains around the same time ( not covered ), I have never seen or heard of this happening before here or on other vehicles.
