Brake pads EBC or Ferodo

So far I like the EBC pads the best.

lovin' my EBC reds. Otherwise I just put quietstop ceramics on my wifes CTS and they are def. better than stock and no dust problems either.

Replaced the rear Brake Pads and Rotors on my 2005 V8 this morning. Turned out to be a pretty easy, straight forward job. 30-45 min. per side.

The rear brake pads I use all the time are ferodo 2500, they are great for the track and don't make noise on the street.

I have had EBC brakes for two years now with zero problems other than the ticking sound from the air hitting the dimples.

I used Ferodo DS-2500 and Mintex Redbox on my 337, and that was my favorite brake setup of three VWs to date. Then there is my brother-in-law's 335i Sport My goal with the 337 was to delay ABS activation, as I thought that the rear was overbraked. I don't recall whether the new pad setup helped in that regard, but the DS-2500 improved the initial bite a lot.

I currently have EBC Yellowstuff in the front and EBC Redstuff in the rear, so I should have a little more front bias.

I did install Ferodo pads as well as the brake fluid flush at local Audi Dealership, however I do have some pulsation when I brake from higher speed. It is non existent in the city driving but on the highway my brake pedal pulsates a bit and I don't like this.

EBC pads are terrible
