Brake pads EBC or OEM FORD

I HIGHLY recommend (if you can afford) getting the brembo bbk. I am running EBC Yellowstone pads and they add a very aggressive and satisfying initial bite as well.

I'm very happy with my ebc sr11 on my type r and so are several others on the forum. I daily and HPDE with them.

EBC OE Blanks w/ Red Stuff. Low dust and great bite.

Just here to say I have them also, and they did quiet down. Remember these are a step up in the performance pad world so there are going to be trade-offs. They actually wish I had gone with a more aggressive pad but considering it's 99% street driving they are pretty great

Have you done some seriously hard braking to properly seat them? Go from like 60mph and hard brake down to 20 or a stop. Not so hard to activate the abs or lock em up, but hard hard. Do this a few times to help bed them in better. I have ebc reds and it seems like the dust does chill a little over time. They still have a heavy bite that not everyone appreciates when coming to the end of a stop. I kinda like it tho. Let’s me know they mean business. Would buy again.

I got their slotted rotors and red stuff pads. Installed them myself but had a strange kind of raspy grinding sound when braking. Figured it was just them breaking in. After a few days of this I decided to take the wheels back off and take a look. Turns out I had installed all 4 caliper clips backwards. Switching them around fixed the issue. Braking was pretty aggressive for the first week or two then smoothed out which they mention on the product page. Now it's quiet and smooth although more aggressive bite in then the oem pads, especially when cold.

EBC pads and rotors are good for normal or amateur competition use. As any other, just needs good bed in procedure. Their rotors are not drilled, which is great for normal street cars.

I have EBC Bluestuff on my M4. I think they are a good hybrid pad, and fine for sprint or autocross, but they will melt as an endurance pad. Sessions longer than 30 min on brake heavy courses and they will glaze.

I have personally ran these rotors with EBC HH pads. I blued them on my first track day and swapped to used OEMs before the next. They felt fine as far as bite but the immediate bluing shows they’re not up to any amount of real heat. If I ran them for a track day or two more they surely would’ve faded badly and warped. I don’t recommend them.

I'm going to shit on EBC HH. They're popular, easy to get, and somewhat better than OEM. But they suck ass. Every time I need more brake power they fade. Every time I want the brakes to bite they just shrug and I feel like I need to clamp down. Progressive riding? Sure. Emergency braking? Hell naw. Need to cut speed for sharp corners? Good luck. So I've switched to Vesrah and never looked back.
