Just installed EBC yellow stuff pads, front only, for an upcoming track day and they are dead silent just like the stock pads were. Couldn't be happier with them-- so far....
Last year I replaced my front pads with EBC greenstuff. The initial break in period performance was amazing. Now they're a little better than stock with added brake dust.
I just changed mine to EBC red and Hawk Sector 27 front disc, huge improvement compare to stock. Very consistent brake feel compare to stock pad. 16k miles.
I have EBC Red pads all around and am very happy with them. Very low dust. Less initial bite than the OEM pads and plenty of stopping power. I always thought the stock pads seemed to grab initially and wanted less braking with low pedal force. These Reds are much more linear (pressure vs. stopping) than the stockers were.
I have ebc reds in front, and hawk hps in rear. Way less dust than OEM pads and they seem to work a lil better.
EBC Yellowstuff brake pads
I used Redstuff on my MKV. Low dust, good bite, no noise except sometimes in the cold using light application. I drive mostly suburban traffic. Pads didn't eat the rotors. They are a ceramic pad (unless EBC changed the formulation recently) so not to be used for track days.
I use these pads. They only make noise when its really cold out. After I drive/brake for a few minutes the noise goes away. I use these pads because I have white wheels. I get roughly an extra week and a half before my wheels look really bad. That alone was worth it to me. Rotors still look fine as well. Hope this helps.
I switched to EBC redstuff ceramic from my OEM pads on my MX-5. They are marketed as slightly higher performance than OEM with much improved wear and dust levels. In my experience they are maybe slightly more grabby initially, otherwise they perform similarly to OEM, but their claims about dust levels were not true at all in my case, they dusted FAR more than OEM. I get noticeable dust after a few days compared to maybe a few weeks before.
I also bought EBC YellowStuff last year, and they promptly broke several springs which lead to hugely annoying rattle noises when driving over bumps.
