Brake pads EBC or OEM BMW

OEM BMW Brake pads

I've been driving it with a Stage 2 tune for 4 years and put another 50,000km on it and I've had 0 repairs. Maintenance is more expensive of course, bigger tires, bigger brakes, more oil, it all adds up but the B58 is super reliable.

Pros: B58 super reliable
Cons: expensive maintenance
Vehicle: BMW
Mileage: 50000 km

Rating 4.0

I use centric high carbon rotor blanks and EBC reds. They're great, although not quite zero dust theyre less than stock. Very grabby in the cold though, worse than stock for that.

Pros: They're great, less dust
Cons: grabby in the cold

I use EBC Red Stuff. They have excellent modulation. EBC's website says that they are lower dust and last longer than Green Stuff.

Pros: excellent modulation, lower dust

EBC Brake pads

Get you some Nitto NT555s, Caltracs traction bars, steeda lowering springs, GT500 swaybars, GT500 Fuel Pump, and a good set of brake rotors and pads from either Powerstop or EBC.

Pros: good brake rotors and pads

EBC Brake pads

Since most pads won't even get that close to the edge, i wouldn't have thought twice about mounting it. Sure, i would check if it IS touching, but i really doubt it.

Cons: did not like the feel

Only pad I've had torque change on was EBC yellow, once it gets close to backing plate the brake torque drops off a cliff, I suspect it's the adhesive they used

Cons: torque drops off
