Brake pads EBC or OEM Mercedes
But the EBC SR11 and SR21 pads have been a game changer for us with regard to wear rate. We run these on our endurance race car and so far they have blown everything else we have tried out of the water. We just started using these so my experience is limited. But we just ran an 8 hour enduro at the ridge and used 1.5mm of front brake pad. This length of enduro at this track would usually consume an entire set of front pads down to damn near the backing plates. This is on a fox body mustang that’s 2600lbs and makes 330whp.
EBC blue on stock rotors, and stock suspension for 2 seasons so far... The pads are done, but I think I'll be getting the EBC blue again
I use EBC red stuff Front and rear. Better than OE performance, with less brake dust.
I upgraded to ebh yellows from stock, they are affordable, huge braking improvement in pedal feel, if your in a cold climate id avoid ceramics.
I changed over to ebc yellows for a track day and still have them on 1.5 years later.. LOTS of brake dust but the stopping power is night and day.
yellow stuff pads (crazy good)
I've been using my SR11s for nearly a year now for few trackdays and some street events. I'm getting tired of SR11s downhill usage more and more since it won't hold and lose brakes so I have to be really careful. Also it seems a bit inconsistent for daily usage/semi-fast touge style drives. Some days it's the best thing ever but somedays it feels like the brake pad is dead.
I'm at just about 25,000 miles and the brakes are starting to feel a little worn out. I'm thinking of upgrading the pads (rotors aren't in the budget right now) and was looking at the EBC Redstuff ones. Probably shoulda gone with the power stops but since it’s a small upgrade I figured the extra money is worth it.
Hated my pair of Yellowstuff. Squeaked like no other. But I'm pretty sure mine were defective. I've been told they squeak but not ear piercing like mine were.
I had yellowstuffs on my e46 330i and they were gone within 3 days on track. Swapped to Pagid RSL1/29 (Front/Rear) after and never looked back
