The Xtra ones are a bit better, harder breaking but will wear a bit quicker. I went with EBC RedStuff pads myself and they’re brilliant but at a minimum I’d be going for the Xtras here if you’re driving it hard.
Traveling at 65mph on open road and a coyote comes running onto the road right infront of me from the open field. Slammed the brakes and got down to maybe 15mph, probably the quickest ive braked ever. Thanks EBC pads and rotors!!
EBC red stuff or Hawk HPS 5.0 pads. Both are better performing than stock and create less dust.
On the 63S I spend 150 each Brembo rotor and 180$ EBC redstuff pads, hardware 10$, sensor 8$. These things are silly easy to do on the rear.
Pads (Ferodo ds1.11 is what i started out with)
I have Speigler stainless lines, EBC pads, and Motion 5.1 fluid in mine.
I always used EBC black organic pads; I tried HH pads briefly a few times but never liked the feel, especially in the rain.
As an EBC Red owner myself. These pads are not built for abuse. Like at all. They're a sporty street pad at best.
Avoid the EBC blue stuff pads with those rotors, in case you're looking. They're super squeaky, even after a couple thousand miles, and seem to tend to put deposits on the rotors that make them feel like they're warped.
I am on their RP-1 pads but I get terrible vibrations after they get heated. I suspect its because I didnt change rotors from my previous pads. I just thought they'd be rebedded after a few hard stops with the new pads.
