    I love the EBC Reds also, I will just keep a bit of a watch on them now, but nothing else I have tried works like them.

    I even put them on the Gf's Mustang GT!

    Oh and just a note: if you are an amazon shopper you can get them there for about 10$ less than everyone else, with free shipping if you are a Prime member.

    Too many stories of EBC pads coming apart for me to ever use them.

    Hobo Bendix Ceramic. Absolute zero dust but less bite compared to EBC Greens I had with self-destruct feature.:)

    Akebono Ceramics + I learned to drive better and use less brakes to keep the speed and momentum up.

    Better tires also are a HUGE help because you can have any big brake kit or pads but if your tires have no grip all bets are off.

    EBC Red

    I even have them on the Wife's Mustang GT and they work great.

    Are they better in every way than "Red Stuff" ceramics?

    There seems to be an issue with EBC red stuff pads separating from the backing plates. Until that issue is remedied I'd recommend looking elsewhere.
