I’ve run ebc red stuffs on autocross and spirited mountain cruises. They held up great, never over heated, and kept less dust. Key being LESS, not none. However, this was on a 200hp mini so I can’t speak to how they’ll hold up on higher power applications. Bedding them in properly goes a long way towards long life. I put about 6 autox, 15k mi, and 2 track days on a set and they were about 40% left.
I run EBC Red Stuffs for the street and i drive in the canyons "spiritedly" and love em.
I’m very happy with EBC pads (red stuff)and EBC slotted rotors
I'd do a stock replacement rotor (Zimm) and a pad with a bit more heat tolerance (not a track pad by any means) to deal with the trailer. Reds are fine street pads but will cave to heat somewhat easily.
I do like EBC Redstuff, no issues with initial bite in the winter time.
Voted EBC Redstuff for mostly street car. Reds produce notably less dust.
EBC Redstuff is really a great pad for this car. 10/10 would recommend
EBC Greenstuff with their slotted rotors have been my favorites so far. Tried Redstuff once but I didn't like them as much
I did the Yellowstuff pads and ebc rotors on the back of my ‘17 RS. The one spring on the drivers side didn’t seat properly at first and squealed until I disassembled it and put it in properly.
Prior to a long roadtrip a few months back, I decided to swap a slightly more aggressive rotor/pad combo onto my car. Nothing crazy, just a bitier pad and more durable rotor. Having always been a Bosch/Brembo guy, I decided to try out EBC, as its apparently a pretty sporty setup to run. So no big deal, I order the set, I pop them on, I break them in, and I go on about my business --> or so I thought. I don't know if this is an EBC exclusive feature or what, but the brake dust is atrocious. This stuff sheds itself more than a housecat coughing up balls of hair. It was only about 750 miles into use that I started to experience horrendous vibrations from the actual pads and rotors depending on the temp of the brakes and how hard I'm pressing. Its not a 'traditional' warp, but rather most certainly just huge build-ups of pad sediment, as these vibrations are intermittent. Anyone else have experience with EBC's? I've done about 5K on them and they're honestly pretty sh*t in my time with them. Likely going to go back to Bosch. Here's images of the dust collection only about 100-200 miles after I cleaned them. Seriously, whats the deal?
