Brake pads EBC or Hawk Performance
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.
I run stop tech rotors/hawk HP plus pads/motul high temp/and goodrich SS lines on my m coupe and that’s also a great, much less expensive set up.
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.
refresh brakes with Hawk HPS 5.0 and restore look of the calipers
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.
I replaced my OEMs with Hawk HPS 5.0s. Very similar feel to the stock pads without that initial hard bite. Less dust as well.
I have the same pads and rotors. They’re an upgrade over stock but man, the brake dust is insane lol
Hawk DTC-60 are known for tearing apart rotors. I went through 2 sets of OEM rotors on my m2 running Endless MS35 pads and I got the same grooving both times. Luckily without the vibration and shaking.
