Default Brake Pads- Where and How Much

Howdy Again Gang!

After all the discussion, I went with brand new Kumho Ecsta ASX's from the Tire Rack for my replacements.

Now for the brakes. After quite a bit of thought I decided I would go with any of the following depending on the prices I can find.
These are for the rear of an 99 A6 2.8 Quattro.
1) Pagid
2)TRW
3)EBC Greenstuff
I have looked online and have some idea of the prices but if one of you knows where I can get one set of these the chepest that would be great. I found the Greenstuff 2000's for like $53 after shipping. The TRW's I found for a little less.

Sure would like to know where to get the best the cheapest!

Later,
HoDown

Default If you are thinking about the EBC Greenstuff read this....IMO...

I am going with Hawk HPS, I am not going to be on the track or anything just faster street driving I enjoy moutain drives at higher speed so I would like some semi decent brakes.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a6/msgs/639338.phtml">EBC Greenstuff Post</a></li></ul>

Default Just use red goop

Put a thin coat of red goop on the back of the pads where they contact the caliper and they are quiet. Bed brakes and enjoy. Greenstuffs are a nice street pad.
