Seriously. Don't even bother getting anything else. Akebono is the OEM supplier to VW and these pads are great. Low dust and gobs of stopping power. Wear rates are significantly better than what you can get out standard pads.

These brakes are incredible - zero noise, zero dust and stop on the dime. I have about 10,000 miles on them now and they are amazing. Paired them with a set of drilled Zimmerman rotors and watch out now casue I look good and function better!
