Ebc Red Stuff. They are a little milder than Yellow but still high performance. I can get a 20 min track session with limited fade. Although once I forgot to turn stability control off and they faded very badly after about 10 min. Less dusty than stock setup.
Ford Fiesta parts reviews
I like them for the price. Grip is great and noise is definitely less than the RS-RRs. They are certainly not RE71s or Rivals but I can buy two sets for the price of top tier. They also run wide as hell. They also wear like iron. Same as the RS-RR.
I ended up deciding on Hankook R-S4's. Seem like a very good, though not quite RE71r level, dry autocross tire, better in wet than dedicated dry tires, able to take the heat of a track day, livable as a daily, and supposedly wear like rocks, so I'm assuming they end up being cheaper in the long run than the federal rs-pro's, or most any other 200tw tire.
I just (like Friday) got slotted StopTechs for the front. I got Hawk pads and can confirm they stop the Fiesta in a timely manner. Outside of the silly blow-off valve, the only modifications I have done have been StopTech rotors front and rear.
I'm happy with my Depo ones, but have only had them installed for like 4 or 5 months.
Depo at $140 each are excellent quality for the money!
I have 225/45r16 on mine. Only have rubbing with the fender going over medium to large bumps at speed. I've had small slivers eaten out of the same area. I'm on my second set of 225's. No significant issues.
At this point I'm chalking it up to cheap-o OEM struts build by the cheapest bidder that managed to squeak through the requirements. With 80K miles, I'm replacing the shocks and struts soon and hoping the problem clears up.
Had mine replaced at about 10k. Both front struts were leaking and it was like driving on a trampoline.
19k miles and struts are completely gone. Replacing with aftermarket instead of junk oem.
