Hawk hps. They are good for general street use/fun drives, never tried tracking them.

I'm running the HPS too. I'd put them in the 'hard to distinguish from factory' category. No complaints for a street pad.
I had a set on my old C4 S4 and tried them on the track once. Definitely not adequate there.
Hawk HPS. Much less dust than stock! Grab is decent around town, gets good when warmed up, put them through paces in the back country and did well...

2004 RS6
APR, KW, REMUS
same here, Hawk HPS, seem to be pretty good, less dust than OEM, been on a track day once and they perform very well. Only downsize is that you will not be able to fit in the wear sensors and mine started to squeal when they warm up after a few harder braking sessions...

HPS here too. They can squeal when cold so extra paste on back is advisable.

Does anyone know the difference between Hawk Performance Ceramic (Premium) and the HPS Street Brake Pads? On tirerack they are nearly the same price but the premium ones have slighly less braking power but less noise and dust. I was going to consider the Performance Ceramic since I don't plan to track my car and I hate the dust from the factory pads.
Any one out there try the Performance Ceramic pads?

I've got them on my A6 2.7T and no issues at all. Stops when I want it to (don't exactly drive it the same as the RS), no squeal since installed (4k miles) and not much dusting to speak of. I've considered putting them on the RS when the time comes.
