Brake pads EBC or DBA
For regular use as a daily driver with regular spirited driving I really like EBC yellow pads. Honestly, those pads combined with StopTech rotors has been a great upgrade for my daily-driven car.
EBC pads, OE quality Zimmerman rotors and a brake flush with the proper fluid is all you need.
been looking at yellow stuff, as what I hear to be a great pad, and is more affordable than I imagined it would be.
I’ve dailied Redstuffs for 4 years now with no problem. They bite well, they don’t squeal, and they don’t make much dust.
No complaints about excessive dust, noise, or harshness - great pad upgrade with no glaring downside IMO.
Switch to EBC red pads if you aren’t gonna track it
I went with the EBC red stuff pads on my F90 and so far it’s been great. I don’t track the car, and I’d say my stopping power feels no different than the stock pads. I just hope they last forever like the stock lol.
Had the ebc yellow stuff excellent pad but the squealing for daily use was unbearable so changed back to OEM.
Even at Gingerman, which is much, much easier on brakes than Road America, the "upgrade" was a disaster. Ok, I admit to not bedding the new pads enough before the track day. That probably contributed to their absolute crap performance.
I had EBC green pads on my 21 CS-R, developed squeal and crazy dust.
