Brake pads Textar or JURID
I just daily my 17 GTI. The stock pads and rotors finally gave up at 103k miles. I was perfectly happy with the oem brakes, but not spending $700. I went Zimmerman and Texstar pads. So far no complaints, they feel like the stock brakes when they were new.
Pros: feel like stock brakes
Cons: stock pads gave up
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 165761 km
Ultima oara am schimbat doar placutele cu textar semi-metalice. Iarasi super miltumit. Nu simt nici o diferenta fata de Otto-Zimmerman.
Pros: super miltumit
Cons: Nu simt nici o diferenta
I got genuine discs from ML performance for much much less than dealer prices, coupled with textar pads made to the same spec as M4 pads (M4 pads are also a drop in upgrade, I believe textar is OE for M4 pads), noticed minimal difference in performance though.
Pros: much cheaper, same spec
Cons: minimal performance difference
I’ve had these Jurid pads on my 2019 S for about four months now and they’ve been great so far.
Pros: great performance, reliable
Part number: 8V0698151G
For pads I've used Jurid White successfully in the past, they produce a lot less dust than the OE.
Pros: less brake dust
I did change my F30 with Textar and it was plug n play. No need to go big if you don’t go on track days often imo.
Pros: easy installation, plug and play
Vehicle:
BMW
Pads I went with Jurid as they’re oem and wanted strong initial bite. The Jurids nock when I reverse, apply brake, shift to drive and apply again. It’s very annoying. My original BMW OEM pads didn’t do this.
Pros: strong initial bite
Cons: nock when reversing
Vehicle:
BMW
Front brake pads are worn. I have a new set of Jurid OEM pads that will come with the car.
Pros: new pads included
Cons: worn pads
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 160700 km
N\u00e1lam ugyanez a helyzet, gy\u00e1ri t\u00e1rcsa a Textar f\u00e9kbet\u00e9ttel rendesen vis\u00edt lass\u00fa f\u00e9kez\u00e9skor. Sajnos m\u00e1skor is j\u00e1rtam m\u00e1r \u00edgy m\u00e1sik aut\u00f3n\u00e1l, \u00edgy legk\u00f6zelebb ezt biztosan nem fogom megvenni.
Cons: rendesen vis\u00edt lass\u00fa f\u00e9kez\u00e9skor
I replaced my brake pads with Textar pads and they are squealing so bad that it is embarrassing to drive it around town. If you are standing outside the car it hurts your ears. I had Porsche sand down the edges of the discs and this has helped a little but not to the point I am satisfied. Although the pads are only a month old I have decided to replace them with another brand.
Cons: excessive squealing, unsatisfactory
