Massive step up from the OEMs assuming proper break-in. Since the car is just a daily, I can testify for the EBC Red pads with stock rotors. Been a year now and I feel like you truly need nothing else than this combo for the streets. Noise is minimal after break in period

Pros: massive step up, minimal noise

I track mine with ebc yellow and blanks. I just bought another set from them. They sell kits. A few hundred total front and rear. Use plenty of brake lube on the backing plates or the squealing will be insane! If just street use, red is plenty good.

Pros: good for track use
Cons: squealing

I got the redstuff pads and the ebc rotors about 3 months ago and they stop so so hard. I cannot compare them to anything else I have driven. They make stopping hard feel comfortable. The only thing I will warn you of is the squeaking. It gets better after about 1k miles but it hasnt completely gone away for me.

Pros: hard stopping, comfortable
Cons: squeaking noise

Akebono Brake pads

I replaced the brembo pads with akebono pads and it squeaked very loud and often for about 1000 miles and then it went down to squeaking much less than the stocks. I don’t really notice it often anymore.

Pros: less squeaking after 1000 miles
Cons: loud squeaking initially
Mileage: 1000 km

EBC yellow lasted on track day, garbage in my opinion, running Carbotech pads now, first pad that lasted a whole day at Limerock, no fade , good bite all day.

Pros: no fade, good bite
Cons: garbage, short lasting
