Brake pads EBC or WAGNER

Another vote for EBC red. Have had them on my MK7.5 GTI and Porsche 991 C2S and very happy. Good initial bite and low dust as a bonus. Great for street but would consider Yellow if doing track days.

I used EBC yellow stuff. A little loud but great pads.

I did EBC red stuff and replaced pads all around at ~50k miles. My rotors weren't bad at all so I kept the old ones on. My pads coulda gone a few more years also. No complaints!

Last year on my 2013 I put on Wagner QS pads and Centric rotors, so far so good.

Slotted are ok drilled are not going to hold up to daily driving. I tried stopteh , ebc and brembo all cracked at the drill points prematurely. I have a 2009 crew cab sport and use it to tow a Dodge Viper. EBC slotted and greens are what I use and have gotten the best mileage out of that pairing. The original mopar brakes lasted the longest but the greens decrease braking distance when towing IMO.

I run yellows and they are brilliant. The stopping distance is about 50% more. Been doing a fair bit of miles and they dont seem to be wearing out excessively. I wouldnt go for anything more aggressive for daily use though you need cold stopping power for when somone pull into your lane during long motorway trips in the rain.

My oem S6 6 piston brembos with EBC redstuff pads are great

I just did brakes on my '13 S4, went with EBC OE Rotors and their Red Stuff pads. The red stuff is definitely low dust compared to the crap stock pads. Very grippy on initial bite and totally silent no squealing.

I upgraded to the yellows from stock pads and they held up fine but they were getting hot and I could smell them in my first session.

I had yellow stuff on my 7.5R, performed well on the street but it fall apart when I took the car on track. They seem not really coping with high heat senarios, bite significantly dropped towards the end of a 20 minutes session, and the pads is installed on AP Racing 8520 caliper with 380mm disc, never go back to EBC afterwards
