Brake pads EBC or OEM Honda
EBC Yellowstuff or Bluestuff pads and cheap iron rotors would be more than plenty for an AW-11.
I ended up going with the same Rotor & Pads as I recently upgraded to on my rear. I stuck with EBC Reds because I might only do some light track use. They have been great pads for me in the past lasting almost 10 years!
I've been happy with my EBC Red stuff pads. Stop great, are quiet and best of all cut my brake dust significantly.
I just got green stuff for my wife’s ‘14 sport. It does feel better under braking than it did feel. I just used stock type rotors as it isn’t aggressively driven so no need for better cooling.
I installed EBC Red Stuff street/track pads on my 2008 Mazda 6 about 10 or so years ago - front pad set only. I selected the Red Stuff pads because I wanted the performance of a trackable pad set, and I got it! The pads were also advertised to be a "low dust" formulation, which we all desire, of.course. I installed them with ceramic pad grease, and did the brake pad bedding procedure as specified by EBC. Prior to installing and bedding the pads, I had the beginnings of very slight front brake pulsation/lateral rotor runout. Believe it or not, this pulsation/runout was resolved after performing the bed in procedure and did not recur. I got the performance increase that I sought - the difference was GREAT, even though I did the front pad set only and the car's stopping power was already good. I found that the pads were not really low dust, at least by my interpretation.
I upgrade to EBC yellow stuff and R1 Concepts drill and slots rotors,ECS tuning brake lines and Motul brake fluid. Very pleased,definitely recommended setup
I run EBC Redstuff pads and they’re good enough for regular driving. Way less dusting than OEM pads.
I'm running EBC's GPFAX on my 636 and Vesrah RJL on the R3. EBC is great bang for the buck, plenty of confidence, never had fade, great bite. Far better than OEM.
I went with the APR rotors and EBC Yellow pads all around, which are supposedly track oriented. The rotors are good, but remember that any type of slotted or drilled rotors will be hard on pads than smooth rotors. EBC Yellows are the recommended pads for light track use. I did two track days and put on about 5k miles. The pads are slow to grab on the street, meaning that they need to warm up before heavy braking.
I ran them on my mustang. They were dirty and occasionally loud. They also didn't last for shit as I believe they are really formulated for lighter cars.
