Default Roter and pads reccco

My 2001 S8 needs new rotors and pads which are currently stock. I have always been somewhat disappointed with the OEM performance which seems to lack some bite.

I would appreciate any input from members. I have read on Audi blogs that just a pad change can be quite rewarding with the stock rotors. However, perhaps a change of rotors (maybe like Stop Tech's) with different pads would be even better.

Your opinions and/or experience please.

Default Good Idea..

I stepped up to the "Yellow Stuff" pad and the "Cryo" Slotted Rotor.

Without spending an arm and a leg and I'm more than pleased with the results.

Excellent stopping when it's cold too.

Went with the HD NAPA rear pad set-up and Cryo'd rotor.

Overall, I am pleased with the results to the point of being concerned with people running into me.
