Brake pads EBC or Duralast

I upgraded to ebh yellows from stock, they are affordable, huge braking improvement in pedal feel, if your in a cold climate id avoid ceramics.

I changed over to ebc yellows for a track day and still have them on 1.5 years later.. LOTS of brake dust but the stopping power is night and day.

yellow stuff pads (crazy good)

EBC brakes are great. They have rotors and pads. The Ultimax pads are the best street pads with low dust.

I've been using EBC pads for a while now with a couple brands in between and EBC just seems to have some of the best bang-for-buck.

My use-case is daily driving and spirited weekend drives, so I can't comment on more aggressive or track use. I know some folks really don't like them for serious track cars so be mindful of that.

I've been using these on my '19 PP MT and have noticed a pretty good difference! However, I paired them with the EBC Redstuff pads.

The rotors are amazing, I've been running them for 4 years now but those pads are absolute trash especially in the rain.

I'm at just about 25,000 miles and the brakes are starting to feel a little worn out. I'm thinking of upgrading the pads (rotors aren't in the budget right now) and was looking at the EBC Redstuff ones. Probably shoulda gone with the power stops but since it’s a small upgrade I figured the extra money is worth it.

I blew through my EBCs on my VB super fast at the Glen.

Same issue here. I replaced the pads twice with the same brand (Duralast Gold), and the issue is still apparent. It appears to be an issue only with the 340mm brakes for Golf Rs and Tiguans.
