Need Some Decent Brake Pads For T-Sport

I want something that is a little better than OEM but the only ones I can get are Black Diamond pads and they are rather expensive. Is there a half way solution and where can find them?

Take a look at Ferodo Premium.

Meant to be better than standard OEM but still designed for road use, so they work in normal road conditions.

A lot of people buy "performance pads" such as the Ferodo DS2500 but they are designed for motorsports - so they're fine for track days but they take time to warm up from cold and for normal road use, the majority of the time you apply the brakes - they've cooled down from last time already.

The DS2500s do seem to get good reviews on the Audi web site I watch - but they are designed for motorsport so they'll be better for that sort of use than normal road use.

Be carefull with "performance" or "race" brake parts on cars for normal road use.

These parts are designed for a temperature range, where "normal" parts start to fail or failed already.

The drawback is, that these performance parts only work properly inside their designed temperature envelope, a temperature you'll probably only reach on normal streets when chased by the police. :wacko:

They also wear down a lot quicker than normal parts.
