I run EBC Redstuff pads, the brake dust is very minimal.
Owner reviews for brake pads
I like Akebono ceramics.
they held up fantastic. I drove to the track, and drive home after the track day; no issues.
Got a 22 brz and use ebc yellow the old formulation on a technical short track without issues.
I have ebc yellow in my c5 and very much prefer them over the hawk street 5.0 I had before. No issues with fade at any point.
I ran EBC yellows at PittRace on my Golf R and they held up fine.
EBC yellows are completely fine. I used them when I tracked my Gen coupe and never had an issue. Dusty as shit, but I liked em for the track.
I drove pretty damn hard all 3 sessions in the novice group passing all kind of faster cars that I didn’t expect to. I had minimal brake fade and a light pulsation developing later in the session after long straights but never came close to an “oh shit” moment. I was pleasantly surprised the next day when I inspected the brakes and found the pads around 2/32nds and the rotors well above minimum spec. I expected to go metal to metal before the end of the day.
I replaced the brembo pads with akebono pads and it squeaked very loud and often for about 1000 miles and then it went down to squeaking much less than the stocks. I don’t really notice it often anymore.
I did have an defective brake pad one time that was rattling around in the caliper. I had the brakes done in Ohio and had it fixed in Massachusetts.
