Brake pads EBC or TRW
Replaced both brake pads with fresh new EBC Redstuff and ecstuning ss lines.
I ran ebc yellow stuff pads on my civic. Would recommend the street version which is green I think. OEM rotors are fine, no need for anything fancy.
I currently have EBC Redstuff on my 2017 VW Sportwagen 4motion and are pleased with the results compared to stock.
I've replaced the stock proportioning valve with an adjustable one and have ebc yellows on the back with no name shit pads on the front.
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 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?
