Brake pads EBC or Akebono
Have found EBC Redstuff to work well on 3 vehicle makes thus far though only 1 car almost had a complete front and rear set. EBC front pads and rotors and EBC rear pads with aftermarket rotors. They have good initial bite and feedback with reduced stopping distance. Good wear with no noise except one set.
Ive really enjoyed EBC brake pads on my LR3
I just did brakes on my 2017 330. I got Brembo rotors, and Akebono pads. They're excellent brakes, akebono pads are highly recommended, and Brmebo holds its own.
EBC Reds FTW...great performance and I can go a few weeks between wheel cleanings and even then its very light. The barrels are way easier to clean up
I just changed them out for zimmerman blanks and akebono pads. I will likely do the same for the front to decrease some of the dust as well. Slightly less initial bite on the pads, but still good brake feel.
They're tried and tested by most of the community including me. They have great bite for street and spirited driving with virtually no brake dust and minimal noise.
EBC Extra Duty pads. Noticeably better then the Akebonos they replaced.
I used to get Akebono pads for my SLK32 from RockAuto.com . Their prices were reasonable and shipping within the US was reasonable.
I have the same pads and rotors. They’re an upgrade over stock but man, the brake dust is insane lol
Even at Gingerman, which is much, much easier on brakes than Road America, the "upgrade" was a disaster. Ok, I admit to not bedding the new pads enough before the track day. That probably contributed to their absolute crap performance.
