I use ebc slotted rotors with red stuff pads for my dailies
I've installed drilled and slotted rotors on my pickup, BMW X5, and just ordered a set for my BMW Z3. I live in the mountains, drive spirited, and definitely have improved braking performance with them. Make sure you bed the pads in correctly.
May have been overkill but it worked a charm. (ebc yellow stuff, dot5.1, high carbon rotors)
I had EBC disks in the past (not on my Alfa tho) and they were very good in my opinion.
i bought used 2011 528i RWD N52 engine with 120k km 5 years ago.
currently sitting at 179k km.
brake discs/pads/fluid
I got EBC rotors and orange pads. Much better than stock IMO.
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?
i run ebc front rotors, dba rear rotors and powerstop pads brakes good but my fronts squeal when cold (my car has brembo calipers)
the 325 rotors are tiny and have pitiful heat capacity
