Brake pads EBC or OEM Volkswagen
I personally installed your first picture and love them. They have noticeably more “initial bite” when braking and just quicker braking overall. If I remember correctly the EBC Red make less dust than stock.
I have EBC reds with stop tech slotted and drilled rotors.
I got EBC Yellow Stuff. Excellent performance. I haven’t experienced brake fade yet and I drive pretty damn spiritedly on my local backroads. The only con is there’s a shit ton of brake dust
Those look a lot like Ebc green pads with their special break in coating. Not cheap pads by any means
TBF it appears he tried to buy EBC Greenstuff which are great pads and got scammed by Amazon. The red paint is normally a friction enhancing paint to aid faster break in.
EBC pads have break-in compound that cuts the rotor to a clean slate so you can preform the correct breakin procedure, some 160kmh stops to heat up and bake the rotor and pad well
Ebc green stuffs, great performing pad. Run them in one of my current cars as well as many previous cars. they’ve all been noisy and dusty but have held up to track days just fine.
I've used them on track in NASA HPDE3 group. They are pretty much equivalent to the Hawk HP+, for a lighter weight car they are fine for track days but for a heavy car you will need a more race oriented pad.
I have ran EBC before and they were meh even on my 120hp Miata.
I tried blue stuff and wasn't impressed at all, I burned through them in a day.
