Default What are you guys using for street brake pads

Gents,
my 7tt needs brakes. I don't drive the car very hard, but do enjoy some speed and some turns here and there. I'm looking at some Textar oem style pads. Any experience with these? Any similar alternatives you like better?

thanks.

Honestly oem is best for street use

The pagid yellows take too long to get hot and are not very effective on street use

I sell a few sets of TRW front brake pads for the 997tt every few months or so. I haven't heard any complaints.

I've got a set of Hawk ceramic pads ready to go on, but haven't tried them yet. Hoping to reduce brake dust at least to the point where I don't feel compelled to wash the driveway after washing the car...
