I ordered Centric blanks and powerstop z23 pads off of Rockauto after doing a lot of research. Have had them on my 2016 GTI for 6 months or so. No regrets, they're great. AND super cheap.
Same issue here with 2020 (standard brakes). Was driving my wife absolutely bananas. Swapped out two weeks ago with Power Stop Z23 Ceramic/Carbon pads… zero noise, good performance after they were bedded in and virtually NO DUST.
I use the z23 on all my cars including the mustang, they are better than stock and no brake dust.
I put the z23 pads and drilled and slotted rotors on my golf mk7.5 and virtually no dust.
I put carbon ceramic brakes from power stop on my C63. They were an improvement over stock and best of all no dust.
My 2017 is a bone stock daily driver and I have no plans to do any major upgrades or track my car. That being said, I've never had an issue with duralast gold pads and rotors from autozone. Reasonably priced and the pads have a lifetime warranty, meaning you buy them once and can trade the used ones back in for a new set at any time, no questions asked. The rotors have a 3 year warranty and even though mine are only showing some very minor wear, I'm going to take advantage of the warranty and swap them out for a new set in the next few months befor my 3 years is up.
15k miles on powerstop “street sport” whatever pads with raybestos painted and coated rotors. Powerstop shoes and drums in the rear. All well so far, hardware appeared quality, pads have a little more bite than whatever was on it when I bought it.
Powerstop z23
Absolutely love em, and I abuse them, they still last
I have had great luck with the full ceramic power stop kit as well.
I've used Powerstop in the past and like them. Good stopping power, low dust, good price.
