    Carbon ceramic brake pads AUDI RS7 Performance 2016

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Hello everyone, according to the catalog front pads 4H0698151C (4H0698151P), rear pads 4H0698451F (4H0698451P)

    What non-original brands of pads do you use? if possible the part number?

    the front ones I chose Brembo P85175N but I’m not sure that they will fit a ceramic disc..

    the rear ones are HAWK HB915B.664, but on the official HAWK website they answered that they do not fit a ceramic disc..

    What do you use? please share your experience

    PS maybe this topic was on the forum, sorry, I’m using a translator, it’s difficult for me to search

    How many miles on your pads ? I have 30k miles on my 16 rs7 performance and still have plenty of pad left

    at the moment 80 thousand km, about 55 thousand miles, the wear is not critical, I want to order something to keep just in case

    The Brembo USA website says that P85175N will fit 2016 RS7 Performance. If you need to use OEM for rear, a number of Audi dealers will discount parts about 20-25% off retail, for example Audi Nyack (New York).

    There seems to be little discussion of ceramic discs for RS7 Performance on AZ, probably due to cost that few AZ members can afford, except possibly Nosferatu, IowaRS7, and THCarpenter!

    I just had mine at the dealership for some tires and they measured my pads at 9mm and my car has 75k miles on it, from looking online new pads are 17-18mm

    thank you very much, I don’t want to install OEM, the price is unreasonably high, I understand that the car is not cheap either, I’ll look for a Brembo for a ceramic disc, if there is a number for the rear Brembo, please give me, or a link to Brembo USA

    yes, this site gives the front ones P85175N, but not the rear ones :(

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting us. Unfortunately, we do not stock the correct rear pads for your RS7. Only front pads are available:

    Thank you for choosing BrembostoreUSA.com!

    I’m still looking for alternatives to OEM rear pads, share your experience

    In my experience, not many pads top the OME pads. I would think that rings true for the ceramic.
    I also have the ceramic brakes and I will be going with the factory.
    The car stops on a dime now so I can’t imagine it getting much better.

    The pads came in and look great however the calipers do not have the open top and require a special socket to remove that i was not aware of and have yet to complete the job
