Brake discs EBC or GALFER
I run a Galfer floating front disc with sintered Galfer pads on my 401. It doesn't seem to stop any faster but feedback is better and the bike feels a lot more stable under hard braking. Would recommend.
I've had EBC slotted rotors on my Crosstrek for almost 100,000 miles now, and they may have been cheaper than OEM rotors.
I've also ordered a full set of the EBC USR rotors and will install them myself, same with the splash shield and door seals.
The ebc slotted are great, I am using them on my gti and Xterra.
Heard good things about galfer rotors
My local shop recommended trying Galfer rotors which is what they run with Maguras and it’s made a difference on my front brake which is the only one I have had rub issues with. Galfer rotor with new pads took about a week to break in with no rub.
I’m running Galfer Wave rotors 203/180 with the E-bike pads front, pro pads rear. It’s so much more brake than I will ever need.
I have Code RSC's on my current bike and got rid of the SRAM rotors and now run Galfer wave rotors along with MTX gold pads.
So my rotors seem to be warped on my 2020 Civic Si, at least I think so. They feel alright with very light braking, but any amount of hard braking immediately causes wobbling. Pads are definitely low, only about 2-3 mm left, so I figured I should just replace the rotors anyway. I just ordered EBC's Stage 5 kit that comes with slotted and dimpled rotors and yellowstuff pads front and rear for $500 due to good reviews on the Civicx forum. However, I'm reading a lot of people say that slotted/dimpled simply is not worth the extra cost for a street car. I drive pretty hard in the mountains and have felt a pretty substantial amount of brake fade at times so I figured I could definitely benefit from some better heat dissipation, but now I'm starting to regret my decision. Am I wasting my money?
hard pass on the EBC products. Had 2x experiences with terrible warped rotors (drilled + slotted). Suggest their brake pads in ballpark with rotors. highly recommend buying from vendor where everything is reliable, predictable, and company stands behind product. I've had great experience with Powerstop but others may have alternative vendors. EBC is a flaming turd for me... from scar tissue.
