I like my EBC red stuff. A little dusty.
I'm on stock rotors and calipers and it's all I need. Making 330whp/330wtq and it stops just fine.Stronger initial bite which gives the feeling of stronger brakes. Definitely better than OEM. Zero squeak/squeal with good ceramic lube
Ebc yellow pads Dot 5 SS lines monoblocks fronts, 4 pads per calliper running front pzero trofeo r ferocious stopping power
I buy a lot of denso parts, gates or continental generally for belts and such. Centric for brakes.
I live in North Jersey, so a bit warmer than by you but I haven't had problems with ebc red stuff pads. I've had them since last December paired with dba 4000 t3 rotors. They do feel like they don't grip as hard on the very first use each day but other than that no issues. The car is a daily driver.
IMO do not put anything OEM on the car as a replacement. Find something with a better pad/rotor combo that doesn't leave deposits Ilike Centric stuff a lot with the Ceramic pads. Good combo
It crossed my mind to get into a battle with the dealer over a wearing part given the mileage but I figured the best i had to hope for was replacement trash. I used high quality Zimmermann rotors and EBC red pads all around. I’m out $400ish yes but i know i have good stuff on now that will last. Brakes better now than it ever has.
Centric ceramic brake pads
Fwiw I have the ebc yellows with their slotted rotors. I love the improved grabbiness but they do dust up alot.
Closest were the EBC Yellows, but the fronts crumbled on a hot day at a fast track (VIR.)
