Front brake pads 996 Turbo

Too late now as you've already bought them.

I had a bad experience with Paige pads from ecp on my RS4. They claimed to be oe spec but deposited lots of material on the discs at a Vmax day.
I'm not convinced they were the same spec as the Audi ones.

Interesting...everything I have read on the Porsche side is that they work well enough. Would be keen to hear if there are any other similar experiences as I can always return them if needed.

In my case it may have been due to the pads also being the same for a 3.2 TT, obviously a lighter car.

Having trashed a pair of discs at £300 each I took the view that saving £40 on the next set of pads wasn't a risk worth taking!
 
Thanks for all the advice guys. The Pagid pads were installed today and they managed to save my brake wear sensors as my old pads still had a bit of life in them.

Have only driven a short while after but initial thoughts are they feel very similar to the previous pads so all good.

Now onto the rest of the to-do list.
