I am running SR11 right now and pretty impressed. Big bite, virtually no need to bed. Its not quite, no good track pad is but its also not that bad compared to other pads I have had.

Pros: big bite, no bed needed
Cons: not a top track pad

I think the Fiesta actually has great brakes, even for its size. The only reason I would upgrade is to fight brake fade. That means new pads, fluid, hoses, and potentially a BBK (for heat dissipation ONLY, at the cost of more unsprung mass). The previous owner beat the brakes to an inch of their life so I swapped out new EBC Yellowstuff pads and EBC slotted discs, along with Motul RBF600 brake fluid. Braided hoses are in the garage waiting to go on at the next service. All in all a nicely sorted setup.

Pros: nicely sorted setup
Cons: brake fade

EBC pads/rotors and motul fluid. I've spent entire weekends hooning Tail of the Dragon with this setup... zero complaints/concerns.

Pros: zero complaints, good for track

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.

Pros: aggressive bite, satisfying

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.

Pros: good performance
Cons: noisy, hard on rotors

I recently purchased EBC BSD rotors and EBC RedStuff. The front rotors ended up with an unknown lead time, so the rep reached out and suggested DBA 4000 T3s. I dropped the car off at the dealership as they'd agreed to cover the labor under warranty. I stopped by yesterday and was told they were having some issues with the install and that the pads didn't come with hardware... the tech was already left for the day I swung by again today. I was told that the holes in the pads were slightly larger than the pins, which allows for the pads to shift up and down. I took it home and confirmed everything is good in one direction, but when I pop it in reverse and hit the brakes, I hear a metal to metal click as the pads shift up and hit the caliper. The same is true when I put it back in drive and hit the brakes.

Cons: metal to metal click, pads shift
