MITZ@CougarStore Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 We've been supplying and fitting them for years, they make an excellent OE replacement pad and emit very little dust too... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 As CS says there is no dust at all. They work well.I find the rears make a small clunk when you roll back which OEM tend not to. But I have used EBC pads for years. Now on my 2nd set from CS. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus01 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Very good fast road pad, ceramic pad so will not squeal. Nice feel even from cold. Reds will not stand up to prolonged track use. Use them on my own and customer cars. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brillomaster Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Yep im happy with my redstuffs, No squeal and seem solid. Not used them hard though so can't comment on how well they stand up to abuse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobPhoboS Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 I'm currently using Yellow Stuff (I preferred this to Red on my old car), even though my pedal feel at the moment is irritating me, once these are biting they are fantastic, no fade either. Not the same car but this is worth noting: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steel Lynx Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Just out of interest. Should the worst happen and an accident occurs, do these different brake pads void insurance if the adjuster spots that they're not OEM? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobPhoboS Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) I told the insurance I had uprated pads, and iirc they are legal anyway. http://ebcbrakes.com/ece-r90/ Edited February 27, 2015 by RobPhoboS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brillomaster Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 ebc redstuff pads are legal, there are a few competition pads that aren't legal for road use, but I think insurance are only worried if you change the diameter of the discs, or change the calipers. brake pads are the same as tyres, and you don't declare non oem standard tyres to the insurer. (although I think you should since putting budget ditchfinders on the rear of a powerful car definitely increases your likelihood of having an accident) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjf1985 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) Haven't had EBC on my 350 yet but I've been using them on my previous cars. Used Red and Yellow, both are great and barely get any brake dust. Edited February 27, 2015 by pjf1985 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobPhoboS Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 The yellows on my one keep my wheels nice and filthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
