Brake pads EBC or Akebono
Akebono pads. Less dust than the factory pads and still have great stopping power.
The EBC pads (Red) that I installed 6 months or so ago have never made a peep at any time. They seemed to fit snugly in the calipers. Very happy with them mated to Zimmermann drilled rotors.
Lol paid £170 for my front brakes last week and did them myself. EBC's too.
Have a look at EBC, their “red stuff” pads work really well on my car and were nowhere near that price.
I've bought brake parts on Amazon for probably a decade. Just got Akebono pads for my Type R on their a couple months ago.
I daily red stuff (stopping a Stinger). They're fine. Occasionally a bit touchy, but that's more me than the pads.
No complaints using reds for daily. If there’s any track use, stick with blues.
EBC red is a great street and auto X pad. It’s not a trackpad. EBC Blue is entry-level track and well it technically can be used on the street. Its manners are pretty poor.
The Reds are designed for streets applications. They will be a much better pad on a daily driver that goes to auto cross or mountain roads.
I like the EBC SR11 but a little noisy at lower speeds & temps.
I've had very bad experiences with EBC pads and yes they were genuine.
