  1. I have 91K miles on my 2019 GTI rabbit and i’m planning on doing front and rear brake kit. Which kit do you recommend for daily driver, no plans for track use, just driving on LA streets lol thank you!

  2. I had a BMW EBC GD (similar to the ones in the video) with the yellow stuff and the conclusion is that they are only good for driving to the store for groceries. As for male driving, you can forget about it.
