Brake pads EBC or OEM Volkswagen

I changed over to ebc yellows for a track day and still have them on 1.5 years later.. LOTS of brake dust but the stopping power is night and day.

yellow stuff pads (crazy good)

EBC brakes are great. They have rotors and pads. The Ultimax pads are the best street pads with low dust.

I've been using EBC pads for a while now with a couple brands in between and EBC just seems to have some of the best bang-for-buck.

My use-case is daily driving and spirited weekend drives, so I can't comment on more aggressive or track use. I know some folks really don't like them for serious track cars so be mindful of that.

I've been using these on my '19 PP MT and have noticed a pretty good difference! However, I paired them with the EBC Redstuff pads.

The rotors are amazing, I've been running them for 4 years now but those pads are absolute trash especially in the rain.

Raybestos rotors and ebc redstuff pads, a bit aggressive but you get used to em

EBC yellow is really more of a daily driver pad than a track pad. I have them on my Golf R and they faded easily on the track. Great on the street though

I’ve clocked 14k, and yes, I’ve already finished off my brake pads. Truth be told, I don’t really expect them to last longer since I drive quite aggressively. Now, the OEM pads cost roughly around 6k with labor. Honestly, I don’t think they’re worthwhile, as the braking feels noisy and lacks bite.

Installed EBC SG two piece racing rotors and EBC RP1 pads on my M2 about three weeks ago. My rotors currently look like this (photos attached) after a recent track day - brakes felt like they were grinding while on track.
