Brembo  Low-Met Brake Pads

These front rotors appear to be of greater strength vs the genuine Audi/VW rotor I removed. Bosch Quietcast pads mated with rotor choice—braking is dead quiet to date vs the SM pads that were on the vehicle when I bought it 3.5 years ago. Followed recommended bedding-in procedures after install to ensure proper heating of the pad material and good initial transfer of pad material to rotor. Price at $82/ea was no brainer and is starting to appear as my manufacturer of choice moving forward. Did not go with a Brembo pad because research suggested that quality controls on that side might be a little more lacking combined with the added expense couldnt be justified.

Have typically been a Raybestos guy for my Audi’s but my supplier has said their quality has declined and further research indicates recent sale of Raybestos to another company has resulted in corner cutting regarding manufacturing.

Still very early in the install, but combination appears to have been a good choice at this time.

Rotors, holes, are already cracking. Already at end of life after one year. Seem to not tolerate high heat well. Probably need to replace soon. But not expensive. Functionally very good no complaints. But the holes all already have significant cracking, will need to again replace rotors in next few months.

Your website was wrong with the pads that go into Brembo calipers. I am still waiting on my refund after more than a month. You need to fix your website as the pads shown for my car are actually for a V6. I had to walk to a local parts store to get the pads I needed for my car since it was out of commission (up on jack stands) when I figured out you sent me the wrong pads.
Please fix your website.
