Last year I switched to the EBC Redstuffs. Overall braking power hasn't necessarily improved that much (according to the butt dyno), but appears to handle heat better as my brake pedal stays consistent through the entire day and doesn't begin to feel softer during the end of the day during my last couple runs.
I run EBC greens. Really nice bite, cold or hot, stock quiet, and a little less dusty than the yellows.
I use EBC Yellows for my STR NC and like them a lot.
I recommend ebc blues to everyone and always get positive feedback, they bite better than oem cold and way better warm they are very dusty though.
EBC yellows have been great for me. Minimal squeal and moderate dust I also tried a set of OEM style ceramic pads but faded them on a high speed autox course.
ebc yellows were great dual duty pads when I used them, but dusty. They feel good on the street and the few hard brake tests I've done felt like they bite well, much better than the OEM quality pads I had.
EBC redstuff, stoptech, OEM. All good pads. I think the redstuff pads dust a little less than OEM, but stopping power is really good from the factory for street driving.
I like OEM or stoptech rotors, again street driving.
I don’t tend to get a lot of life out of pads, but so far OEM rotors seem to last as long as 2 sets of pads. I just put on the stoptech rotors last time I did a brake job, so far so good.
I run the yellows on my rear brakes on my MK6 GoRf which is tracked. happy with all but yellows dust significantly more than reds
I recently installed EBC redstuff with new rotors. Did the bed in procedure and worked great for first 300 miles or so. Today, I noticed a really loud squeaking noise coming from one of my wheels. Noise starts after brakes are warmed up, and increases when turning the wheel. Goes away when I apply the brakes. Think my pads might be glazed after some sprites driving, but not like I’ve done anything crazy.
I wouldn’t recommend EBC red stuff. They have been incredibly dusty, for me anyways.
