Default EBC Ultimax...what do you think?

Hey guys...Anyone used these or heard anything whether good or bad? I'm thinking about replacing my brake pads and all I need is a quiet set of good quality OEM pads. The brake dust doesnt really bother me that much but if I could get a set of pads that is both quiet and low dust thats even better. From what I read the EBC Ultimax are supposed to be very quiet and they say they are better quality than the factory ones. What do you think? Also, I'm thinking about getting Brembo (both front and rear) discs, just the regular ones-no slotted or drilled. Would that be a good choice? Btw, I have 2003 A4 1.8T FWD. Feel free to recommend pads/disc just keep in mind I don't need any perfomance/racing type of brakes...Thanks...

So noone heard anything abt these pads? Also, do you guys think its safe to take my car to someone like Midas for a brake job if I buy pads and discs or I should stick with Audi mechanics?

No man, I went to a Midas and they wanted like 600 to do everything on the car!!! Take it somewhere else.

Oh and brembo is a great company and so is EBC! Try getting the EBC greenstuff pads. People have good luck with those!
