Brake pads EBC or Mintex

Last set of pads were yellowstuff, they had a nasty bite when low speed braking and whined terribly. Switched to greenstuff, i like them.

Nice middle ground in brake performance, no whine, no low speed bite, no oem shimmy.

Bought reds, burned through them, bought blues, i like them better. A touch more grabby at slow speeds, and slightly more dust, but they held up at an HPDE no problem. The reds did not.

Ebc yellow stuff pads are pretty nice. Got em on my NB. Wouldn’t hurt to replace your pads with those. Break in process asks for new rotors but you can probably get away without em if you really don’t wanna do it, I did.

I put ultimax on my 3, and I can stop on a dime.

For what it's worth, I had the shudder too, it was pad deposits on the rotors. New EBC pads, some hard braking, and it went away.

I just put red stuff on my Stinger GT2 and love them . I also put geo series drilled and slotted rotors. What I will share with you is I had to pull the metal plates off my break pads so that they could fit but other than that their great.

Those look to be EBC "greenstuff" brake pads. "For spirited street use on lighter sports sedans and hot hatches, Greenstuff 2000 series is a perfect choice." They are made more for performance than driveability, they aee not really meant for your average daily driver. They are not bad pads, but they are intended more for the weekend racer. The pads will be noisy and harder on the rotors than regular pads. EBC also offers a red pad that is even more aggressive and intended strictly for track use.

Those look a lot like EBC Greenstuff, I'm assuming a cheap copy - the EBC break-in coating on the front does work well and doesn't squeal but I work on the assumption that anything from Amazon is fake.

I used to destroy ebc pads in my 2002 WRX at leguna Seca.

I’ve used EBC on my previous TTs, lasted 3/4 of day at Limerock
