vs
Brake pads Textar or GALFER
I beat the hell out of some OE Textars in 110+ heat at Buttonwillow and they held up admirably. You don’t need anything more for the street.
Pros: held up well, high heat
I always had good results with textar and Zimmerman.
Pros: good results
I use all Textar disks and pads and they are excellent.
Pros: excellent disks and pads
I order the Galfer e-bike brake pads G1652 from Amazon and they fit really well. Definitely would recommend
Pros: fit well, recommend
Part number: G1652
front brake pads (textar) for gti with performance pack, bolts, anti-squeal, grease; normally $70+
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
The rest (brake pads), I guess this is OEM but if you go to Sharjah and buy the parts yourself, I am confident you can get much lower prices, especially if you buy aftermarket such as Textar which is a OEM supplier.
Pros: lower prices, good quality
Galfer pads and rotors. I'm 210lb and can confidently slow down with rival flat mounts and 160mm rotors
Pros: confident slowing
Brake rotors are ATE and pads are Textar.
Vehicle:
BMW
Go with the Galfer synthetic and that too will be burnt under 4k km, I have changed twice already in 10k.
Cons: burns under 4k km
Mileage: 10000 km
Textar is hot garbage these days unfortunately
Cons: poor quality
