Brake pads EBC or OEM BMW
I run yellows and they are brilliant. The stopping distance is about 50% more. Been doing a fair bit of miles and they dont seem to be wearing out excessively. I wouldnt go for anything more aggressive for daily use though you need cold stopping power for when somone pull into your lane during long motorway trips in the rain.
My oem S6 6 piston brembos with EBC redstuff pads are great
I just did brakes on my '13 S4, went with EBC OE Rotors and their Red Stuff pads. The red stuff is definitely low dust compared to the crap stock pads. Very grippy on initial bite and totally silent no squealing.
Switched to EBC red fronts. A bit surprised over the dust level comparing it to previous MK7 GTIs and GLIs I had them on. Seems close to OEM pad dust on the MK8s
The pads on my 2019 Alltrack are wearing nicely as there is plenty of life left at 52,500 miles.
I have EBC Greens on my '95 miata with 80k miles and 3mm on each corner due to spirited driving.
The EBC RPX pads are their race ones and are incredibly good for the price. They last a long time and have serious bite. I have these paired with their fully floating rotors and callipers and have not had a single issue in a year of tracking my e46 m3.
I’ve been using EBC Yellowstuff on my mk7 gti for track days and daily driving. My first front set lasted 2.7 days (basically dissolving in my last run on one side). However, I’ve thought brake feel is good and I’ve now run a new set on new rotors for 4 track days. They look fine?
Meanwhile, my basic 330i standard rear brakes were apparently almost 500 bucks to replace…holy cow I don’t think I actually make bmw money anymore hahaha
Same here. I basically drive a few times per week and clean the wheels at least twice!
