							The Hawk pads lined up nicely with the OEM ones so I don't see fitting as an issue.. 
  
As for "if it works", I don't know yet, I'm still running in the rotors and pads, did another run in today, initial bite is still not there yet, going to do it again for a few hundred ks... Need the freeway to do a proper break in...

							what ebc's did you have? 
 
I was originally planning to get SSS all round but would really like to hear what you think about them on the track. 
 
Shitty pads really detract from the whole experience I never realised just how important they are untill now :P

							The basic set from EBC... Green stuff... Never ever buy them again LOL!  
  
Yeah, when the parts run in, I'll let u know how the SSS goes although I'll prolly never be able to tell you much because of the rotors LOL!

 My stock pads are like tofu. I can press the pedal down 1/2way and it's not biting.... Brake line has no air bubbles and have been flushed. Will change over soon.

							Can't beat mine! it gets so hot and fades so much, my handbrake don't work! 
  
BTW, you reckon after I run in the rotors and pads, should I bleed the system again, I've flushed it but yeah.. Should I?

 Mine have gone weaker aswell.. i think it's because the pads have glazed over? 
 
Someone suggested today that i take mine off and lightly sand them so they start biting again like they used to. 
 
there was a 1.9 TDI golf (latest model) out there aswell and he said his pads stood up fine.. 
 
verdict... oem euro pads = shite

							I used to sand my OEM rotors every two weeks just to get that little bit more of bite because mine looks like a freaking mirror LOL!

 If you've flushed it, then no need to bleed.
