Brake pads EBC or STOPTECH

Last year I replaced my front pads with EBC greenstuff. The initial break in period performance was amazing. Now they're a little better than stock with added brake dust.

I went with the Powerstop slotted/cross drilled rotors, and Stoptech Sport pads on my Impreza, and they're awesome. The Stoptechs are Semi-metallics and initial bite is really good compared to the ceramics I previously had.

I just changed mine to EBC red and Hawk Sector 27 front disc, huge improvement compare to stock. Very consistent brake feel compare to stock pad. 16k miles.

I have EBC Red pads all around and am very happy with them. Very low dust. Less initial bite than the OEM pads and plenty of stopping power. I always thought the stock pads seemed to grab initially and wanted less braking with low pedal force. These Reds are much more linear (pressure vs. stopping) than the stockers were.

I have ebc reds in front, and hawk hps in rear. Way less dust than OEM pads and they seem to work a lil better.

I have a full Stoptech setup (4 slotted rotors and street pads) on my MK6 GTI right now, and I like how it feels and performs. I used to have just Stoptech rear pads on OEM rotors, and it seemed to perform just fine as well. The downside (in my experience) with the street pads is that they dust a LOT, especially the rears.

I had StopTec Posi Quiet pads installed on my '17 R. They have very little brake dust and are much more linear feeling than the stock pads. I can highly recommend them for street use.

I love Centric (more specifically StopTech, their performance brand). I use StopTech cryo rotors on all my cars, my TL has the slotted cryos. I really -do not- like their pads though. For some reason the stopping power was just not like Akebono or Red/Yellow stuff. They are super quiet and low/no dust which is great.

Just checked mine 5 minutes ago. I have a 2016 Autobahn with PP. I don't have this feature.
