I run yellows and they are brilliant. The stopping distance is about 50% more. Been doing a fair bit of miles and they dont seem to be wearing out excessively. I wouldnt go for anything more aggressive for daily use though you need cold stopping power for when somone pull into your lane during long motorway trips in the rain.

Pros: brilliant, long lasting
Cons: poor cold stopping

I just did brakes on my '13 S4, went with EBC OE Rotors and their Red Stuff pads. The red stuff is definitely low dust compared to the crap stock pads. Very grippy on initial bite and totally silent no squealing.

Pros: low dust, grippy, silent
Vehicle: Audi S4

Switched to EBC red fronts. A bit surprised over the dust level comparing it to previous MK7 GTIs and GLIs I had them on. Seems close to OEM pad dust on the MK8s

Pros: better performance
Cons: high dust level
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Part number: DP32127C

Im about to change my rotors for the second time with some fresh EBC blue stuff pads. If you plan on putting any heat into the brakes, just be ready for hot spots on the rotor and for the rotor to be toast.

Cons: hot spots, rotor wear

The initial bite is really, really good on the street, and the pads feel very good. I never had issues with overheating.

The life of the front pads, however, wasn't very impressive to me. I got about 8 months of daily driving (75% highway miles), 20-30 canyon runs (roughly 35 minutes each) + 2 trackdays (my 2nd and 3rd ever) out of them. I had to cut my 3rd trackday short because the wear sensor came on, and then within 10 minutes, the front pads were metal-metal with the rotor, and I went off into the dirt.

Pros: good bite, good feel
Cons: short life, metal-metal
Vehicle: BMW Z4

I run EBC yellows on a heavy car (Kia Stinger GT) and they do ok. The problem with TNiA events (especially the novice group), there's usually A LOT of traffic, and no one is pushing the limit into braking zones.

Pros: ok for novice events
Cons: not for advanced use
Vehicle: Kia

I've used them on track in NASA HPDE3 group. They are pretty much equivalent to the Hawk HP+, for a lighter weight car they are fine for track days but for a heavy car you will need a more race oriented pad.

Pros: fine for light cars
Cons: need race pad for heavy cars

EBC yellow stuff are terrible for track use. Had a set disintegrate and nearly catch fire only like 12 mins into a session.

Cons: terrible, disintegrate
