Oem size brembo disc + trw pads

Post by **quattrodragon** » Sun Jun 26, 2016 6:58 pm

Has anyone used this combo before? Seems to be a 3-400quid savings from an oem replacement set... Is it just the premium for the Audi stamp or actually the oem is better?

Are the discs the 2 piece type?
I think the trw pads have taken a slating on here for either dusting up or fading....
I always use EBC yellow stuff but i also fitted genuine discs from Stoke Audi online.

Yes the disc are two piece discs... looks exactly same spec as the oem ones

What's the oem supplier for Audi pads?

I think theyre either febi or ATE.....
Thats some saving on discs mate, would you mind me asking who the supplier is?
I need new rear discs in the next few months....

The discs are just as good , Your paying the great Audi tax on the oem ones .I fitted the TRW pads on the front, there ok but when driving Really hard there is some fading . I wouldn't advise them for track day use but day to day running around town etc their fine

I don't think Brembo's do the rear just OEM .

It is £540 for the front discs (no pads):

Or £438 for the rears:

Note: I've not checked the details on either auction, just what I found from a quick search. I'm assuming price is for a pair and not each.

I installed these Brembo front discs as well last week

Just to be clear..the OEM discs and the Brembo discs are identical. They are both manufactured by Brembo.
Its a pity they don't stay this good looking!
