I’m very happy with EBC pads (red stuff)and EBC slotted rotors
I'd do a stock replacement rotor (Zimm) and a pad with a bit more heat tolerance (not a track pad by any means) to deal with the trailer. Reds are fine street pads but will cave to heat somewhat easily.
I do like EBC Redstuff, no issues with initial bite in the winter time.
Voted EBC Redstuff for mostly street car. Reds produce notably less dust.
EBC Redstuff is really a great pad for this car. 10/10 would recommend
EBC Greenstuff with their slotted rotors have been my favorites so far. Tried Redstuff once but I didn't like them as much
EBC yellowstuff pads, it stops on a dime now.
I suggest you use EBC brake pads but that's just personal choice.
The pads were about 60% worn and hard large metal shards embedded in them and the rotors have always been badly grooved from day 1. This suggest that its more likely the rotor that is a soft material. Once there are metal shards in the pads that will cause uneven friction and promote brake grab and pulsing. I replaced the pads and the \u201cwarp\u201d pulsing has gone completely, but I suspect the new pads will also eventually pick up metal shards from the rotor. The other point is in case people want to avoid factory pads is that the front pads are Jurid and the rears ATE. I ve replaced all with Padid.
Closest were the EBC Yellows, but the fronts crumbled on a hot day at a fast track (VIR.)
