They are definitely getting better as the go though some heat cycling. Very happy with them now.
I bedded them in good, and there is not a big change in bite. They definitely work well when they have some heat in them. Happy with them. No noise as of yet.
I like these pads, but they have less bite than the HP+ pads. Those would really grab. These make no noise as of yet. Just the grab feels similar to a stock pad???? I like them and am happy so far.
Very quiet, very good bite and feel. Probably the best brake pad I've used.
cross off the 2500's i love mine but if don't clean my wheels once a week it looks like i haven't touched em in 6 months.
Currently running Ferodo pads which I prefer to the Mintex Redbox pads.
What I did notice is that the brakes performed better when doing repeated stops which is related to their heat dissispation.
The most economical upgrade for street use is just beefy pads. Try Ferodo DS2500 on the front axle with your OEM 11.3" rotors combined with Hawk HPS on the rears.
I did install Ferodo pads as well as the brake fluid flush at local Audi Dealership, however I do have some pulsation when I brake from higher speed. It is non existent in the city driving but on the highway my brake pedal pulsates a bit and I don't like this.
Yeah use OEM rotors with DS2500 pads. That will be a great setup! Actually, DS2500 might be a bit too much for street, since they are pretty dusty and a little noisy.
