Brake pads Textar or STOPTECH
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.
Pros: happy with combo, good stopping power
Cons: rotors lack longevity

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.
Pros: almost no dust, less bite
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.
Pros: good OEM+ option, good track performance

Try the StopTech street performance pads. Perfectly suitable for a daily. Ran them in 2 cars without trouble and what i consider very little dust compared to the porterfields I was running.
Pros: little dust, suitable for daily

I recommend Textar, great bite and no need of pre-heating. They also don't cause too much wear on the discs and on the other hand don't generate much brake dust.
Pros: great bite, low dust
StopTech rotor drilled & slotted. StopTech streetpads.
I run StopTech® Sport. They did me just fine on the track and are still suitable for daily/spirited driving.
Pros: good for track, suitable for daily driving

I put stoptech pads on my 2011 hatch and they have been so beyond noisey they have been driving me insane. Gotta find something else to replace them with. Hope your experience is better!
Cons: very noisy
