Brake pads EBC or Centric

Big fan of ebc, run red stuff pads on any of my vehicles that they are made for.

Brakes the pads are cheap enough with EBC yellow around 150$ am axle.

But it looks like the prices doubled, crazy.

Pads are great though.

I like Centric’s Posi Quiet brake pads. A little more bite than original pads with substantially less brake dust.

Now that you have an actual motorsports caliper I would highly advise looking into EBC's SR-11 or SR-21s pads.

They are THE ONLY pad that will take some insane abuse on track, still be whisper quiet on the street, and work just as well at 0 degrees as they do at 1000 degrees.

Myself and a handful of other guys run them in time attack and I seriously have zero complaints. You honestly won't find a better pad, if you happen to have a caliper they fit in.

Been using EBC Yellow Stuff for about a month now and love em. At the same time I got Continental summer tires put on as well. It's crazy how much more braking power this set up gas, however you may have to get used to the firmness, took me a couple weeks to soft stop again without a minor jerk when finally stopped, and I notice tire nose more now as well.

I would also recommend the Yellowstuff pads. They are a bit more expensive than the reds, but worth it. I've cooked my red stuffs a few times and the yellows seemed to be much more temperature resilient, I'll be switching back when these die. I also didn't experience any less cold bite from the yellows compared to the reds, which is important on a street pad.

I've always run EBC YellowStuff, and paired them with DBA 4000 T3 rotors, on all my cars, even before I did the STi Brembo swap on my WRX.

I have ebc reds. I still get lots of brake dust and I prefer the bite of oem pads more. Not to say reds are bad, they just didn't meet my expectations for a daily.

the brakes on the VB are pretty bad with zero bite in the first few inches of brake travel. I’ve had the past 2 generations on WRXs for OEM brake comparison. Ordered a full set of EBC Ulitmax2 OEM replacement pads to help a bit.
