Brake pads EBC or Zimmermann

EBC Brake pads

On the 63S I spend 150 each Brembo rotor and 180$ EBC redstuff pads, hardware 10$, sensor 8$. These things are silly easy to do on the rear.

Pros: easy to do

I just installed front and rear brakes @90k on my MK7.5 GTI w/PP brakes with a kit from FCP Euro Zimmerman cross drilled font and rear with EBC Red Stuff pads. The price has gone up a good bit since then but its a good upgrade from stock imo.

Pros: good upgrade from stock

I’ve got EBC blue stuff on my Chrysler 300 (weights like 4400lbs) with EBC slotted rotors. The factory pads were quite easy to overheat to where you can feel a decrease in braking performance, by the time I installed the EBC pads, the factory pads and rotors pulsated. With the EBC blue stuff pads I have yet to feel them fade (no track use). Some downsides, they dust like crazy, my chrome wheels are a dull gray in just a few days. Additionally they sometimes squeak and squeal, they also feel a little worse than factory pads for initial bite when it’s really cold out such as 20f. Lastly they aren’t supposed to last all that long.

Pros: no fade
Cons: high dust, occasional squeal, poor cold bite, short lifespan
Vehicle: Chrysler

I am on their RP-1 pads but I get terrible vibrations after they get heated. I suspect its because I didnt change rotors from my previous pads. I just thought they'd be rebedded after a few hard stops with the new pads.

Cons: terrible vibrations when heated

Only pad I've had torque change on was EBC yellow, once it gets close to backing plate the brake torque drops off a cliff, I suspect it's the adhesive they used

Cons: torque drops off
