Time for a brake job...
Stock '98 1.8T, and the stock brakes work well for me. Where can I get stock brake pads at decent prices? Anything aftermarket that works the same at a lower cost? Thanks.

Might be car specific .. perhaps how they were bedded?? I run EBCs on both axles and find the
initial bite to be better than stock once they are warmed. When they are cold they don't have the initial bite of the OEM.
I changed rotors at the same time so perhaps that plays into it as well. I am running EBC slotted/drilled in front and Zimmerman crossdrilled rears. That combo definitely helped with my 'wet braking' issue once everything is warm.
