Ebc green stuffs, great performing pad. Run them in one of my current cars as well as many previous cars. they’ve all been noisy and dusty but have held up to track days just fine.
EBC pads are awesome and definitely not cheap. That is a special break in coating that EBC uses. I’ve had several sets and been very happy with them although I do get a little squeak with the yellow stuff.
Go to Summit Racing order EBC new rotor and pad kit and thank me later.
I don't trust most shops to do the right thing with brake work. I have run the EBC stuff on Avalon and GS350 as well as many motorcycles.... Great product get street oriented pads for long life.
stick with ATE or akebono. both good for their price. have ran both on my e39 and they work great with their respective rotors
FWIW I wound up with those Brembo front and Zimmerman coated rears with ATE ceramic pads and I’m very happy with it. To me the stock setup is grabby at low speeds and these are much smoother. I don’t feel like I’ve lost any stopping power. Huge difference in brake dust.
I literally just did exactly this.. Had the BRAKE warning light on the dash and replace rear brakes on Idrive message on my 2019 X3 M40i at 32k miles.. rear rotors looked fine to me.. they were smooth and not grooved.. so i bought OEM ATE PADS and a BOWA rear brake sensor.. $128 shipped from Pelican parts and i was charged 1 hour of labor ($135) at my local Indy shop.. as others have mentioned youtube is your friend.. just a rear pads replacement is a pretty easy job w basic tools.. I should have done it myself but I decided the $135 cost was not worth my time and effort.
When I got car had drilled slotted rotors and brake performance was horrible. I’d suggest this kit to anyone and I have white rims also. At least one wash a week keeps brake dust at bay. Stopping performance for stock calipers and rotor size couldn’t be better.
EBC red. Yellow likes to squeal loudly if it isnt warm.
I went Zimmerman rotors and EBC red, big mistake. They are super noisy.
EBC yellow stuff are terrible for track use. Had a set disintegrate and nearly catch fire only like 12 mins into a session.
