I'm happy with EBC red, better braking by less fade but I don't know if can be much better with other combinations

Pros: better braking, less fade

Rating 5.0

akebono euro ceramic pads have the least dust i've ever seen from a pad, make no noise, last awhile and i havent seen any extra rotor wear. however they are NOT a performance pad, think of them like stock pads in temp performance but just very low/light colored dust, no noise.

Pros: least dust, no noise
Cons: not performance pad

Can't say enough good things about my Akebono pads. Dust is almost non-existent and they stood up to a full day of Auto-X without any fade....at one point several consecutive runs.

Pros: dust almost non-existent, no fade

I ran the SCCA PDX on June 15 on the Summit Point Main Circuit. The burning brake smell that several other drivers remarked on turned out to be the stench of my EBC reds and stock rear pads decomposing.

Cons: burning brake smell, decomposing
