Brake pads STOPTECH or OEM Chevrolet
I have brembo uv coated rotors front and rear. I only put them on in the fall but through 1 winter they still look like new. I have stoptech pads as well and they work very well, a solid improvement over stock, butttt they dust A LOT.
I have been using Stoptechs since uhmmm.. 2009? They have good initial bite and good braking feel. The down side is that they produce so much dust.
IMHO id run the StopTech Kelvar pads part # 309.16090 only $98 Cheap & great pads! better than OE TRW & Textar Crap that fades like crazy. i do alot of HPDE track days and the Stock pads ( organic compund) fade really bad.
I've used EBC yellowstuff, works fine. I also love the Stoptech Street Performance pads, they have a higher temperature rating and are dirt cheap.
The brakes don't inspire confidence. I replaced mine with a stoptech setup which is overkill but the feel, modulation and overall power take away one of the stock car's biggest weaknesses IMO
After the OEM's wear I'll upgrade to Stoptech pads.
Highly recommend stoptech street performance pads edit: not if your dust averse which it seems you are
...or Stoptech Street Performance pads. Very good.
Some mk6's have the 272mm rotors and some have the 253mm. I found out the hard way when I ordered the standard Stoptech Street Performance pads. Had to reorder.
Just checked mine 5 minutes ago. I have a 2016 Autobahn with PP. I don't have this feature.
