Default Need Suggestion on Break Pads
I own a 2001 TT Coupe Quattro 225HP and the break pads have to be replaced. Any suggestion on the brand/product of break pads which, based on your experiences, are more reliable, less dusts produced and no sound upon breaking than the factory ones? Thanks for your comments.

Mintex Red Box brake pads will cut the dust to almost nothing. Worked wonders for me.

Default Mintex Reds on all my cars. What little dust there is, washes off easily.
If you ever track your car, I suggest big brakes. Several good brands. I personally have Stoptechs and recommend them highly.

Want to put them on. Service says "...voids breaking system war."
