I run rp1 on street they work great no squeaking. Good on track too.
I think the Fiesta actually has great brakes, even for its size. The only reason I would upgrade is to fight brake fade. That means new pads, fluid, hoses, and potentially a BBK (for heat dissipation ONLY, at the cost of more unsprung mass). The previous owner beat the brakes to an inch of their life so I swapped out new EBC Yellowstuff pads and EBC slotted discs, along with Motul RBF600 brake fluid. Braided hoses are in the garage waiting to go on at the next service. All in all a nicely sorted setup.
EBC pads/rotors and motul fluid. I've spent entire weekends hooning Tail of the Dragon with this setup... zero complaints/concerns.
When I replaced my rear brake pads and rotors earlier this year - he straight up told me that the front pads were almost out but the rotors were good and since this particular dealership needed you to replace both together - he recommended a local German auto shop that would replace just the brake pads.
I HIGHLY recommend (if you can afford) getting the brembo bbk. I am running EBC Yellowstone pads and they add a very aggressive and satisfying initial bite as well.
I'm very happy with my ebc sr11 on my type r and so are several others on the forum. I daily and HPDE with them.
EBC OE Blanks w/ Red Stuff. Low dust and great bite.
Those look a lot like EBC Greenstuff, I'm assuming a cheap copy - the EBC break-in coating on the front does work well and doesn't squeal but I work on the assumption that anything from Amazon is fake.
I used EBC green pads back in the 80's. Never again. They caused vibrations and even with new rotors, they again vibrated a few months later.
EBC street pads are nothing special.
