New brakes Brembo Max in front and Brembo in back
I have them on my rear axel with slotted EBC rotors. No squealing what so ever with about 3,000km's on them so far. It was properly bedded so idk if that's why some folks are having issues.
I have ebc redstuff on my fiesta st. Best pad for the money hands down. With my car/community, they are the best pad for a DD with more grab and less dust than stock. They also last way longer.
I actually just put new rotors and redstuff on all four corners. I have not had any issues with them. Just make sure you bed them in. I think the only time they squealed was early in the morning when it was cold. After a couple stops at stop signs, I never heard from them.
Brakes i try and stick with Brembo, they seem to be the best from all the ones I've tried on the race bikes, they do enough compounds that you can really fine tune what type of riding you're doing as well.
Brakes - EBC. Tried others either didn't like the feel or they didn't last long, or made a mess of the wheels (I do a lot of miles daily) so stick with those now.
The "fitment" issues to my understanding and personal experience are more for the rears and is an easy fix. EBC powdercoats the steal part of the pad and as a result, the part that slide into the caliper can be just a fraction of an inch too thick. All you have to do is get a piece of sandpaper or a razor blade and remove some of the coating. That's it. I love the Redstuff pads...they grip good and haven't squeaked on me yet. Also the rears lasted some stupid amount of time for me even with some sporty driving. I think it was like 90k or more.
upgrading the pads is one of the cheapest most impactful upgrades you can make to the brakes . I have HH EBC pads on my MT09 and they feel fine but if you’re already changing them and you know you’re gonna spend a lot of time on the track just get the trackday/race pads
I put about 65 minutes of track time on my EBC Yellows. The seemed to hold up Okay. I sent some pictures to EBC they said they got really hot and I should consider brake cooling options.
Went to a track day over the weekend to realize my EBC Yellow Stuff front brake pads were dangerously low - after only 1 previous track day 6 months ago and about 5000 highway miles between.
