Brake pads EBC or Ferodo

EBC Brake pads

EBC Greenstuff with their slotted rotors have been my favorites so far. Tried Redstuff once but I didn't like them as much

Pros: favorite brake pads
Cons: Redstuff pads disliked

currently running ebc yellow stuff and dba slotted rotors (cuz street cred bro!). probably going to do the same with blank rotors next time around. no noise, stops great but gets pretty dusty. works perfect for a daily that gets driven hard with the occasional track day

Pros: no noise, stops great
Cons: gets dusty

Many folks here telling you to run hawk HPS but I WOULD NOT if you’re dailying. EBC yellow stuff, in my experience, stop better, are less noisy, but do produce a bit more dust. I purchased hawk hps when I had to replace my previous set of yellow stuff. Drove on them about 500 miles (at most) and ended up taking them off. They’re sitting in my garage with 95% life left. As for rotors, I currently run EBC drilled and slotted rotors. Last time I ran the EBC OE replacement rotors and they worked well too. Lastly, you want a little more bite than stock but less dust and noise than the EBC yellow stuff or Hawk HPS then go for EBC red stuff. I’m not biased at all with EBC, I am just talking from my experience as I’ve owned both highly recommended pads. I would never buy another pair of Hawks again.

Pros: stop better, less noisy
Cons: more dust
Mileage: 500 km

Ferodo Brake pads

SOLVED - I simply overheated the pads. Spoke to Ferodo and I followed their advice: Bed in was fine. Overheating led to pad material bake to the rotors. 120 grit block sanding on the rotors removed this. Pads were a little glazed but 80 grit sanding removed the shiny bits. Bed in again and running well but haven’t pushed it yet so unsure if the pads are done.

Pros: running well after sanding
Cons: overheating, pad material baked to rotors
