Brake pads EBC or Mintex

One of the Sciroccos currently has EBC green stuff pads and EBC slotted rotors. Not a single issue.

I put EBC Red pads on my MINI and they have been great, the car stops better and I see no dust at all on the wheels.

I've very much enjoyed my EBC green pads on my dailies, they do dust a bit but grab pretty nice and don't squeal. Never had a buildup that causes vibration.

I've run multiple sets (Green Stuff and Yellow Stuff) without issue. Yes, the yellows dust quite a bit but no more than most semi-metallic pads I've had. As far as vibrations go, my 2013 Abarth has Yellow Stuffs all around that feel great and just completed a track day last Monday without issue.

I changed out the stock pads for EBC reds in the first couple thousand miles, so I will see how that ratio works out.

312 upgrade. Stoptech slotted rotors and EBC Redstuff pads.

So for approximately $300 I got much better components. Which are MUCH better than stock and improved feel and effectiveness. ECS Tuning cross drilled and slotted rotors(288mm) EBC Red Stuff

I switched to EBC red stuff pads when I had my BBK installed. I like them, but haven't taken them to the track yet. Much less dust than stock.

I had the same problem, thought it was the suspension. Took this video to diagnose it and the dealer figured out it was the EBC pads rattling in the calipers. Too bad, I really liked how quiet they were (no squaks!) for street duty while giving no fade issues for 25 mins track sessions.

You wanna avoid mintex red box these days. The passat pads have a slight problem with burning up under hard braking.
