Has anyone used EBC Red Stuff pads? If so any good?

This is for road use only.


Cheers

Personally I would NOT use EBC pads on my car....few track day or fast road enthuasists use EBC. Spend your money elsewhere for better stopping durability, less dust and less noise.

Fore purely road use the factory pads are very good. From cold I would be surprised if they can be beaten by any of the aftermarket pads.

Trackday and road use together then Pagid RS29 all the way...

Cheers for all the input, I just find that after some sustained spirited driving the brakes start to fade.

It goes in next week for braided hoses and uprated fluid so I'll see how it is with these changes first before deciding on the pads.
