114k still on factory brakes all around!
TBH I'd just buy the rotors and get stoptech pads. I have use many pairs of them and they work well without breaking the bank.
I really like the stoptech sport brake pads. They are very aggressive and brake very well with excellent initial bite. They don't fade much after repeated heavy braking which is nice. This does come at a cost. Since these are semi-metallic compounds they will eat your rotors. You will be replacing rotors with pads every time.
I have custom drilled rotors and Stoptech/Centric Posi-Quiet pads combined with Stoptech SS lines on my LS430. I'm very happy with the combo but I would not recommend those rotors if you're looking for longevity. I would stick with regular blanks or slotted only if you really want that stopping power and longevity.
Brakes are good
Centric/StopTech PosiQuiet ceramic pads. Couldn\u2019t be happier. Almost no dust in comparison to stock. And yes, a bit less bite, which I\u2019m fine with.
I've got the TTRS brakes on my mk6. Good OEM+ option for you mk6 and mk7 guys. Direct bolt on. They help out a lot on the track. Stoptech pads for street and carbotech xp10 on track. EVO and STI pads fit as well.
GTI Brakes with StopTec Slotted Rotors and Brake pads
I do not like the brake feel on this car. Extremely touchy. Not at all like my 2014 GTI. Good to know some different pads might address this. Might look into that.
Check for brake pad deposits, VW uses absolute garbage for pads these days. My 2019 Alltrack has pad deposits at 9k miles (owned it barely 9 months, bought new) and they are only good willing 75% and I am going to drag them through the mud about it every chance I get.
