Brake pads Brembo or EBC
Drilled Brembo max rotors and Brembo pads
For the pads I went with:
Brembo Pad Set (P56048N + P54039N) for $110
I use EBC Green Stuff. They are organic. More brake dust, but you really can feel the stopping power.
I paid $25 ea. to have front rotors resurfaced at O’reilly and put brembo pads and new sensors on my wife’s 2017 Macan GTS for a grand total of $190 which included a new can of brake clean and new caliper bolts from Pelican.
Ebc green stuff are great so far 200 miles
EBC Red Stuff I recently did my brakes and these are really quiet and durable and great stopping power and low dust.
I went with EBC Red stuff pads just waiting on rotors.
I've looked online to see what the front brake pads and discs for my 987.1 Cayman S cost. Brake discs from Brembo cost 103 euros each and a set (4 pieces) of brake pads, also from Brembo, costs 65 euros, so in total the material costs 270 euros.
I personally had a terrible time with EBC brakes especially the yellow stuff. A month of daily driving and one track day had the pads so low they actually slipped out of the calipers while I was driving, customer support swore up and down I installed them wrong and it’s my fault. I put project mu hybrid pads on next and I’ve been out on 6 different tracks days and a year of driving and there is still 5mm of pad life left.
Had them on my m240i. Lasted one track day before they cracked.
