It's time to replace the discs & pads again on my S3 and so I'm after your advice & recommendations please. I'm not intrested in "my mate says..." or "I've heard that..." type of feedback, only your own actual experiences please.
A few things I have ruled out:
1. I am not looking to upgrade the disc /caliper size.
2. The current set-up I have is EBC grooved/dimpled front and EBC plain rear, with Red Stuff pads all round. I've found them to be "OK", but I had BOTH rear inner pads crack down the centre line and the front discs have worn quicker than I expected them to. So I am not using EBC again.
3. I am not considering drilled discs, because of the risk of them cracking.
I was considering Black Diamond grooved with Predator pads all round but what other recommendations do you have? Has anyone got experience of Black Diamond discs/pads?
99% of my driving is on public roads, with very little track use.
Cheers, look forward to the replies & suggestions.
