Brake pads EBC or Raybestos

They’ve been installed for a few months now and they’ve been great!

I ran a set of EBC Greenstuff 2000 Series pads over EBC slotted and drilled rotor on my Ford Focus. Quality difference over OEM is huge. I'd never run OEM again.

On my Mini SE, I have EBC red on the front, yellow on the rear to add more rear brake bias. Works great for DD and AX. On my R53 with correct brake bias, reds all round. I really like the reds for both DD and fun driving.

I've had good luck with Raybestos element 3 pads paired with the Raybestos street performance rotors from rockauto.

For daily driving, EBC Redstuff are perfectly capable and inexpensive.

Last year I switched to the EBC Redstuffs. Overall braking power hasn't necessarily improved that much (according to the butt dyno), but appears to handle heat better as my brake pedal stays consistent through the entire day and doesn't begin to feel softer during the end of the day during my last couple runs.

I run EBC greens. Really nice bite, cold or hot, stock quiet, and a little less dusty than the yellows.

I use EBC Yellows for my STR NC and like them a lot.

I’ve got ebc red stuff pads on my non performance GTI and they are ok. I probably will get something different next time around. They do dust a bit, probably the same as oem.

I wouldn’t recommend EBC red stuff. They have been incredibly dusty, for me anyways.
