Brake pads EBC or Carbotech

Used these all last season for autocross and track and they performed great, no noticeable fade and bites hard, dust was significantly more than stock though imho

I recommend Carbotech brake pads. Expensive af but last twice as long and are better than just about any other pads out there.

I run EBC Yellow on stock discs. Car is used for spirited drives and the Nurburgring. No complaints in 10+ years of use

I've been using EBC Yellowstuff pads for a while and they've been great. My car gets used hard on the road, and occasionally on track. They don't last as long as standard pads, but worth it for the extra stopping power!

Have had them for a year or two now. Do the proper break-in procedure and they're a nice upgrade over stock. Honestly don't think anyone needs more for the streets

Wife swapped her OEMs to EBC yellows and it's night-and-day difference. 10/10 would recommend.

I have EBC front sets on an 08 C30 T5 M66 and 03 GS300. Both are Redstuff pads rather than Green as in the Kit below. Exceptional brakes so will use these when times come for our 2020 Tiguan.

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.

I’ve got ebc red stuff pads on my non performance GTI and they are ok. I probably will get something different next time around. They do dust a bit, probably the same as oem.

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.
