Getting the brakes upgraded this week and was wondering if I could get some help here on which brake pads to get. I'm leaning toward the red stuff personally but wanted to know what other options that there were out. I listed below the pros or both the red stuff and green stuff.



Automotive Brake Disc Pads
Award Winning DUST FREE
Kevlar Brake Pads!!


EBC Greenstuff Roadsport Compound




suitable for all fast road applications including hot hatches and fast sedans
Prices start at $49 for most Asian sport compacts, up to $89 for larger pad shapes

This pad features a high Kevlar content formulation resulting in an ultra high performance road pad which is extremely kind to discs. With a friction co-efficient of around 0.46µ and high resistance to brake fade (550º C) this pad is a superb upgrade for high performance street cars, high speed freeway use and consecutive heavy braking.

Greenstuff has won many awards from UK magazines, and was rated #1 fast road car brakes by UK's largest circulation motorsport magazine, Max Power, in 1999.

Features and Benefits of Greenstuff:
upgrades brake performance by 30-50%, friction co-efficient of 0.46µ
excellent initial bite resulting in instant response - no warm-up needed
class-leading fade resistance on the street - heat stable to a blistering 550ºC
extremely low disc abrasion - due to high Kevlar content
low dust formula, great for alloys - due to zero carbon content
low vibration - smooth operation


EBC Redstuff Semi-metallic Compound



IDEAL TRACK DAY PADS!!
suitable for light to medium race applications, fast road usage by heavier cars and track day use
Prices start at $69, up to $109 for larger pads

EBC's semi-metallic Redstuff formulation is a true asphalt race pad with medium lifetime and a friction level of about 0.3µ steadily rising to 0.33µ at 750ºC. Redstuff is very kind to brake discs and can be used on highway vehicles for extreme duty use as well as on race cars.

Redstuff gives longer pad life under extreme road conditions

Features and Benefits of Redstuff:
friction co-efficient starting at 0.3µ and rising to 0.33µ once warm
medium initial bite with friction steadily increasing with heat
heat stable to an incredible 750ºC
low disc abrasion
