Description

The streets are made for more than just commuting. All that pavement laid out in front of your hood is an open invitation to red-line your speedy auto. Staying in complete control of your high-octane ride is essential in this environment, and that’s why you need EBC’s Red Stuff Brake Pads. The ceramic blend in these performance pads is made special for muscle cars, swift European autos, and other mean street machines. In fact, they’ve been shown to stop sports cars up to 42 feet ahead of OEM pads!

Your EBC Red Stuff Brake Pads bite hard, but they don’t leave behind nasty dust residue like other high-performance parts—50% less dust, in fact. And, you won’t hear them screaming bloody murder when you hit the brakes. Their beveled edges, center-line slot, and ceramic mixture keeps the noise down to a minimum.

There’s nothing tricky about installing your EBC Red Stuff Brake Pads. They’re custom made for a direct replacement of your factory pads. They even come with a 12 month/10,000 mile warranty

Notes

  • It's always best to use the same compound in the front and rear, but if budget restraints prevent that, use this guide:
    • When using Red Stuff Brake Pads on the front and replacing the rear, it is recommended to use either a set of Red Stuff or original brake pads for the rear.
    • When using Red Stuff Brake Pads on the rear and replacing the front, it is recommended to use either a set of Green Stuff, Red Stuff or Yellow Stuff Brake Pads for the front.

I've had the pads on my BMW for about 400 miles now. Stopping power seems to be very good when cold and even better when hot. The break-in coating on the pads is interesting and seems to help "bed" the pads with the new rotors. Only problem I've had is with squealing. I've coated the back of the pads and re-coated them after a few hundred miles plus lubed the rubbing points. I think I'm pretty well through the noise issues and am now enjoying very good braking that I expected from these pads.

Before I installed these, I had Green Stuff so I can't tell the difference between them. But that doesn't mean they suck. They're still very good quality.

Have not had them on the car for long, but I hope they are quieter than the green stuff pads I had previously. So far they are only squeaking a little so it is an improvement over the extremely noisy green stuff pads.

Easy install, pads were coated w/break in material. Squealed at first until broken in after about 2500 miles. Stopping power was greatly increased. With the mods done on the car, I'm making 357 whp and 363 wtq. Braking is as important as building power. These pads fit the job and with less dust after they're broken in.

Great breaks, and value it OK. But worth it since u don't have to buy brakes as much as I use too. I still have my first pair on the front but I just replaced my back brakes with redstuff. And they work good they still squeeking but it takes about 500 miles for it to stop. But I highly recommend these too any one needing new pads. And I will always buy these. Thanks! By the way I put them on a 2005 BMW 5 series.

What a difference over the OEM pads! No noise, no discernable dust, incredible grip, no noticeable fade. Using with EBC Slotted Rotors. I would buy again and recommend to any Z owners.

The EBC reds work great. They were a little noisy at first which seems to be dissipating. They were also very dusty but I attributed this to the break-in surface. The dust seems to be going away. All I will say is that they do work better than the stock! Jerry K. in Baton Rouge, LA.

It's still early but brakes are working well. Love the way they look. Still making a grinding noise when I stop hard.
