    I am looking for new pads for my '14 3.0T. I only see centric posi quiets for both front a rear. What are others running? I hate OEM ones.

    There's EBC and Hawk. I don't think Akebono makes for 3.0t.

    I made the switch in the first 500 miles. Now the wheels stay clean for weeks at a time.
