Hello all,
After spending a few days searching and reading and searching some more, I feel like my head is spinning in so many directions that I am almost more confused than when I started :mad0259:.
I have a 2012 GTI with 47,000 miles on it. The harsh Cleveland Ohio winters have really done a number to my rear rotors (rusted) and the pads only make contact with about 10% of the rotor. The fronts are getting close to needing replacement at this point so I am about to do all four corners and call it a day. I ordered some Centric Blanks for new rotors and am now confused as to what kind of pads to get. I am looking for a OEM replacement, with perhaps a little more bite and aggressive stopping power. The car is a DD and will never be tracked but gets driven aggressively here and there. Ive read countless reviews on Stoptech (dust issues), EBC (apparently they crumble?), Hawk (squealing) and now I'm left with no real positive options. :iono:
Can any one help me out or point me in the right direction? I know I need to order the smaller set of pads for the Bosch calipers.
Thanks in advance.
