EBC makes great pads and discs. Have them on my NB and they've been solid for like two or three years now after the Brembos warped themselves.
The EBC RP-1 pads seem to have good road manners.
I have the performance pack, went with OEM rotors and EBC red stuff pads.
I installed EBC Yellowstuff pads and at first they squeeled every stop. 5K miles later it diminished substantially.
I personally installed your first picture and love them. They have noticeably more “initial bite” when braking and just quicker braking overall. If I remember correctly the EBC Red make less dust than stock.
I have EBC reds with stop tech slotted and drilled rotors.
I got EBC Yellow Stuff. Excellent performance. I haven’t experienced brake fade yet and I drive pretty damn spiritedly on my local backroads. The only con is there’s a shit ton of brake dust
Replaced the rotors and went with EBC yellow stuff pads. They don't look quite that bad, but 2 years later they're hardly looking like clean swept rotor surfaces.
Took the Swift for a spirited drive down the horseshoe pass today, by the bottom the brakes stank, pedal went soft and stopping power became dangerously weak. Drove it softly for a mile or so and they were back to normal and I could lock the wheels again.
I have a 2019 XC40 and kept having brake issues - they ended up replacing the pads and rotors… at less than 15k miles. I continue to have issues (now it’s nothing serious, just a very loud obnoxious squeal)
