Brake pads EBC or Ferodo
They’ve been installed for a few months now and they’ve been great!
I ran a set of EBC Greenstuff 2000 Series pads over EBC slotted and drilled rotor on my Ford Focus. Quality difference over OEM is huge. I'd never run OEM again.
On my Mini SE, I have EBC red on the front, yellow on the rear to add more rear brake bias. Works great for DD and AX. On my R53 with correct brake bias, reds all round. I really like the reds for both DD and fun driving.
For daily driving, EBC Redstuff are perfectly capable and inexpensive.
Gyrodisc 2 piece rotors + Ferodo DS2500.
Last year I switched to the EBC Redstuffs. Overall braking power hasn't necessarily improved that much (according to the butt dyno), but appears to handle heat better as my brake pedal stays consistent through the entire day and doesn't begin to feel softer during the end of the day during my last couple runs.
I run EBC greens. Really nice bite, cold or hot, stock quiet, and a little less dusty than the yellows.
I use EBC Yellows for my STR NC and like them a lot.
Many people don't like ferodo pads, but I use ds2500 for dual duty, but they can be hard to find. Just got to be careful getting off the highway with them when they are cold.
I had yellow stuff on my 7.5R, performed well on the street but it fall apart when I took the car on track. They seem not really coping with high heat senarios, bite significantly dropped towards the end of a 20 minutes session, and the pads is installed on AP Racing 8520 caliper with 380mm disc, never go back to EBC afterwards
