Brake pads EBC or OEM FORD
Installed the EBC redstuff over the weekend, wow i love these brake pads, much better bite than OEM pads, and no noise. Not sure about the dust yet, car is dirty, but bite is amazing, im super satisfied
EBC yellowstuff pads ( for track days)
For this event, I plan to bring an extra set of EBC Yellow Stuff pads, per my friend/instructor's suggestion.
Front Big Brake Kit, 17z front brake calipers, 330mm x 32mm rotors, EBC redstuff pads
I have about 400 street miles and 100 track miles on my set. Noise is practically non existence. Dust is much less than stockers. They have less (much less) cold bite compared to stock. I got scared the first week or so I put them on, but after awhile, I think I've adjusted and don't think too much of it. When heated up, they do bite more than stock and give very linear and predictable feel. I was pleasantly surprised they performed pretty consistent after repeated hard breaking from 115 to 40ish at track. I limited my sessions to only 20 mins or so per session and ambient was only in the low sixties. So that helped. For longer sessions and harder use, I would probably go for something else. Also note, I ran stock pads at the same track and same driving style and they literally crumbled.
The yellows are claimed to be a 50 50 Track and street but honestly you could only get about a weekend out of pure track use ... really no noise after the first 50 miles .. dust isn't too bad either .. it's there but they don't cake like track pads do. Very minimal fade too , I did 8 100-10 stops and felt it in the pedal still ... though they were glowing a bit
Currently running yellow stuff and their slotted rotors all around on my 16 SE . Honestly for the money they are the best pad I've ever used. Once you get through the bed in cycle they will put you through the windshield...
I've run Red Stuff for five years. I definitely recommend for stopping power and low dust.
I had the same problem, thought it was the suspension. Took this video to diagnose it and the dealer figured out it was the EBC pads rattling in the calipers. Too bad, I really liked how quiet they were (no squaks!) for street duty while giving no fade issues for 25 mins track sessions.
Don't buy EBC greens for the van. I put a full set on and the van has horrible braking performance before the pads heat up, which we almost never do. Cold pad performance is almost dangerous. Get something with more initial bite.
