red stuff pads served me well on the street but overheated in my first auto cross day. No one should have any business driving them hard enough on the street to overheat them.
EBC says that their racing RP RP1 brake pads are compatible with their street lineup. So swapping pads back and forth won’t be a problem.
EBC Redstuff pads
I use EBC YellowStuff. They are great on the street and very predictable & consistent at the track. My local track is not very brake intensive: I’ve run 8 track days on the same set of pads plus lots of street miles in between. They’re due to be changed before my next track day.
EBC Bluestuff NDX Appears to perform similar to DTC-30/ME20 or equivalent as a hybrid street/track pad. I know a couple fast drivers that use them with no fade. They're cheap enough that you might as well give them a shot, make sure "NDX" is in the product id.
Redstuff pads; excellent bite, zero dust
If you want more braking performance but don't mind the extra dust, the EBC Yellowstuff pads are my favorite street pad.
I’ve had these EBC blue stuff brake pads for 6k miles (2 track days) and they fronts are almost down to the metal. I expect them to go quick but this was a lot quicker than I had thought
EBC's suck so it's nice they provide a chart with better pad options :)
I've used Yellow Stuff about 4 times on 4 different cars. I drive very aggressively on the street during midnight haulin ass events. First off, even on the street I glazed them on all 4 cars. The one car I fried them in one night, and they cooked my rotors too.
