I get about 60K from them with Zimmerman Rotors.

Need to replace front pads and rotors, suggestions on parts? - Don fvcking Juan 2017-12-19 14:37:53 (371 views)
- Hawk 5.0 and Centric/Stoptech slotted rotors is my plan. - Silver Streakin' 2018-01-06 09:45:40 (235 views)
  - I've been happy with the Hawk 5.0 pads on my B6S4. Bummer they don't make rotors for the B8 - Benson 2018-01-17 10:01:45 (230 views)
    - Sure they do. TireRack lists Stoptech slotted rotors front rear. 5.0 front and rear. - Silver Streakin' 2018-01-17 14:24:25 (216 views)
      - I'm referring to Hawk rotors. I have them on all my cars.  -  Benson  2018-01-17 14:35:18 (195 views)
        
        Oh. I didn't even know Hawk made rotors. Seems as if Centric blanks makeup a lot of rotors.  -  Silver Streakin'  2018-01-18 11:38:42 (262 views)
        
        Yep, Sector 27...   -  Benson  2018-01-18 13:12:26 (225 views)
        
        lol at them on SUVs.  -  Silver Streakin'  2018-01-24 10:06:22 (231 views)
        
        IKR?  -  Benson  2018-01-24 16:53:22 (192 views)

- Really that's not a bad price - DrGP 2017-12-20 15:08:42 (310 views)
- I've had good luck with Akebono Ceramic and Cryogenic from Tire Rack on our B7 A4 - louwill 2017-12-19 16:59:29 (372 views)
  - Drilled and/or slotted is more for show than go, as you'd alluded to. - Don fvcking Juan 2017-12-27 08:22:19 (308 views)
    - Nope, no problems with using the ceramic pads. They've lasted *forever* on my wife's daily A4. - louwill 2017-12-29 14:55:27 (293 views)
  - I done well with Akebono ceramic pads. Samo as louwill on the rotors.... - bpp 2017-12-20 05:52:54 (320 views)
    - No issues with stopping power on the ceramics though? - Don fvcking Juan 2017-12-27 08:24:37 (257 views)
      - none at all. I'm a late braker and put my system to the task and all worked well. :) - bpp 2017-12-29 07:46:57 (272 views)
