can attest to this, discs looked good so just got pagid pads for the A4 in front, brakes good but amount of dust is atrocious and did start to squeak not long after as well... not worth the hassle at least to me and might as well just get a matching set pads and discs.One thing though, personally it is false economy to fit premium pads to old discs especially if the discs are unknown quality.
One place where you can NOT go cheap....is brakes...
Going off that logic, people with no brakes are the safest.Small brakes are safer than big brakes.
Drivers who have big brakes have more accidents than drivers who have small brakes.
It's about driver psychology and the way they behave when given higher performance equipment.
Take the Audi A1 as an example.
256mm, 288mm, and 310mm front brakes have been fitted to various models.

The models with the smaller brakes are likely to have a lower insurance group and are therefore safer.
The models with the bigger brakes are likely to have a higher insurance group and are therefore more dangerous.
If you contact your insurance company and tell them that you have increased the performance of your brakes, they will probably increase your insurance premiums or refuse to insure you.
Everyone should have brakes that work well, but a bigger problem is driving on the wrong type of tyres, such as summer tyres in the snow.

That is completelly wrong logic, because size of the brakes does not have anything with the way the drivers drive. But larger brakes are fitted to more powerfull engines/car variants, which are bought by people that also use that performance. And of course there is much higher probability of crash in an Audi S1 with 200HP, driven ''spiritedly'' by a 25 year old also on some nice twisty country roads just for joy in comparison to Audi A1 1.0TFSI with 95HP, driven by a 40 year old woman in a traffic jam from home to work.Small brakes are safer than big brakes.
