Brake pads EBC or Akebono

I did a pad swap at 6k with EBC Yellow pads and it made a significant difference.

Ebc redstuff pads and dba rotors are what I run and I love it. The pads do squeak a little sometimes but only if you’re real soft on the brakes

Akebono are top notch. Bosch rotors are great. Especially the coated ones for areas that use salt on the roads in the winter.

I like Wagner both rotor and pads but the hands down best pads are Acabono

akebono pads are oem. drive nice and quiet and strong. centrics rotors are decent.

For Autox - why not Yellowstuff. They are a great street/autoX pad in my experience. Reds are horrible to me/not worth buying. Also Ferodo DS2500 is a good all-arounder.

Red stuff I find amazing at auto Crossing + daily driving. Low dust, no noise a great street performance pad. Absolutely not meant for track use.

EBC Ultimax produces much less dust than YellowStuff. If you like cleaning wheels constantly...And Ultimax performs very, very well.I used to use YellowStuff for autocross events, on three different cars (Mazda 2, Focus S and NC Miata).

Had the Hawk 5.0 HPS and they dust their ass off. Took them off and went with the ceramic Akebono and I don’t even notice a difference in pedal feedback after breaking them in. Initially they did have less stopping power but now I can’t tell. They also squealed at low speeds for some reason. (Such as pulling out of driveway)

Be careful when buying brakes for the Stinger, if you buy anything cheaper than the originals you'll get a nasty judder within a couple thousand miles! I had to replace the disc and pads with EBC Yellow to get rid of it. The judder was awful.
