EBC Greenstuff with their slotted rotors have been my favorites so far. Tried Redstuff once but I didn't like them as much
I recommend Power Stop ceramic pads and solid rotors. The 6 is an economy car by design. So, there are no practical or worthy trade offs to other types of rotors/material besides aesthetics.Since it's a 16', I highly recommend doing a full brake job even if your mileage is low. If I am correct, the 2016 model has an electronic brake that requires a service mode to be able to do the job(refer to manual since I can't help you on that).
I installed the power stop ck8067 and I’m happy with them. I went with the geomet coating to help with corrosion around the bolts and wheel hub; the coating gets worn off behind the pads instantly. Only time will tell how much it helps though.
EBC yellowstuff pads, it stops on a dime now.
I suggest you use EBC brake pads but that's just personal choice.
I love my power stop brakes. Got a whole kit on rock auto with pads as well as drilled/slotted rotors. Been running it for over 2 years with no complaints at all, they’ve been fantastic brakes
currently running ebc yellow stuff and dba slotted rotors (cuz street cred bro!). probably going to do the same with blank rotors next time around. no noise, stops great but gets pretty dusty. works perfect for a daily that gets driven hard with the occasional track day
I run EBC yellowstuff and Centric blank OE replacement rotors. Stops on a dime.
I have the epfa pads on my ‘17 r6. More power than my stock pads but not crazy in bite or max power imo. I’m a mid pack b group rider at best so yrmv. However, important to note, I took a trip to deals gap this fall and crossed the skyway in a cold light rain (45°f?) and the pads were not happy. First time I grabbed the lever and they had 15% of the power I was expecting, and took a solid 2 secs to build enough heat to do anything.
I have the ebc reds they are good but smh at the people saying they are not dusty. they are worst pads i have ever had for producing dust.
