Rating 5.0

I’ve always used Zimmerman rotors and Mintex pads, and have yet to find a better combo. I’ve tried Brembo, Stoptech, Bosch, but nothing has pleased me like Mintex [pedal feel, stopping power, no noise, very low dust [especially when used on drilled rotors]].

Pros: pedal feel, stopping power
Cons: nothing has pleased me

I went from OEM to ebc yellow stuff to combat brake fade on the track. I feel a bite difference on the road for sure. If you don’t mind a bit of squeak, the ebc brakes are good.

Pros: good bite, effective
Cons: some squeak

I also upgraded brakes to Optimal brand e-cote rotors and EBC Red street/performance pads. A nice improvement in brake feel and the new rotors look better, but hardly necessary.

Pros: improved brake feel
Cons: hardly necessary

EBC Brake pads

Mine were equally grooved, if not more so. The stock pads have a high metal content and this eats away at the rotors. I recently changed my front rotors and pads for Stoptech Slotted + EBC red ceramic pads. Rotors are noticeably higher quality, and the pads are pretty good as well, though they dust considerably more than my stock ones did.

Pros: rotors higher quality, pads pretty good
Cons: pads dust considerably more

EBC pads come with special brake-in layer to deglaze rotors. And this is what they recommend (came with pads): I have them on my Tig. Excellent low dust, high performance pads.

Pros: excellent low dust, high performance

EBC Brake pads

I had this issue with Hawk HPS, and had to tap on the brakes in heavy rain often. Have EBC Red now, they don't do this but they also don't stop the car well period.

Pros: no issue in rain (EBC)
Cons: don't stop car well (EBC)

Cons: cracked, separated
