either

forward = faster pad wear and more road noise but apparantly better braking.

backwards = less braking and road noise but longer pad life

and just to add imo grooved discs aren't really necessary on a gti-6 as the oe brembo discs are v good anyway.
But as you've bought them fit them enjoy them and let us know how they perform Thumbs up
