    I installed ATE discs and ceramic pads on my CC and they were great... Silent and dustless... Performance wise, I don't recall seeing any improvement, they were as good as OEM. They also come with 50,000 KM warranty.

    I bought the pads already from HSY, a helpful bloke from the shop looked at the discs and said they will be alright without replacing or machining... I just need to install them now...
    How much does it usually cost to replace all brake pads?
    Do HSY sell to the general public? On their website they talk about Wholesale and trade customers?

    I too have used ATE Ceramic Pads on a couple of previous cars, but I had sourced mine from Overseas...

    They're mainly trade/wholesale, but will sell to the public.

    I installed the ATE Ceramic Pads today without doing anything to the discs. They are perfect, no squealing noise, absolutely silent, and they feel very smooth

    Good to here too. Once my Rotors start making a noise I'll be going T3's with ATE pads.
