    Super cheap, TRW DTEC take-off brake pad set for 400/356mm S6 / S7 / S8

    I upgraded to G-LOC pads a long while back and am finally cleaning out the garage. For a whopping $55, I'll ship you my set of four TRW DTEC pads with 7k miles of use.

    Notes:

    TRW part numbers: TPC1575 (front); TPC1547 (rear)

    TRW DTEC is a carbon-ceramic pad compound for street use. It offers the closest thing to OEM cold bite, while reducing dusting by about 40%. Yes, these still dust a bit, and will show on your wheels after a week of regular driving. Just not as heavy as the Brembo pads.

    I noticed a slight, cold-only light squeal from the rear pads on my 2018 S6, but YMMV pending fitment, and I didn't turn the rotors from the OE pads. Fronts are completely silent, cold or warm. Consistent bite (linear) with pedal pressure.

    These are a fair-quality pad to consider as an alternative to OEM, and TRW is the OE supplier of Audi floating calipers.

    Box weighs 13lbs, shipped UPS Ground. I've wrapped the pads up for protection in shipping.
