[s-cars] brake pads?

[John Cody Forbes]

Check out Carbotech's 1521 compound. They are a low dust pad that also dusts 
in a light grey color instead of the usual black. One cool feature is that 
they are made from the same base material as their track pads so you can 
switch to their track pads and back with no worry about rotor transfer layer 
issues. I've never had them make any noise either. Grip is very linear and 
good, though initial bite is less then OEM style pads.

Subject: [s-cars] brake pads?

Guys,

I need to install a new set of pads on my '99 A6 and am looking for
recommendations. Calipers are 996 C2 (Boxster S), and the car is a daily
driver. I took a quick lookŠHawk, Pagid and EBC all have pads for this
caliper, along with Porsche OEM.

Any recommendations on which pads work best for this application  with
regard to braking, dust and noise (in that order)?

Pads and rotors have 50K on them. Any reason to replace the rotors now too?

Thanks,

Lee
