I have Yellow stuff. Whats the difference?

I hear from most people Reds are the ones to get.

I will stick with Yellow, they are for faster road, track driving than the Reds according to the website. :race:

More brake dust but better performance... I know which camp I'm in... :rofl:

[EEE007]

[Daz]

Thanks guys. I'll get some red stuff pads then..

Just be aware that red stuff pads munch the standard discs.

OEM pads were randomly cheap last time I heard a few weeks back.

Last weeks RPD OEM prices:

Front - £115.99 inc

Rear - £193.66 inc


Great time to buy OEM fronts, that's for sure. 50% off!

Personally prefer reds on the back but its more a matter of personal preference, rears don't heat up as fast as fronts so I use yellow on the front red rear, works well for road or track, slow road use the yellows wont warm up enough to be so effective.

Yellows need heat to perform. You will not get the rears up to that temperature range without serious extended track work.

Yellows for the front, reds for the rear, if you like to crack on. reds all round if you drive a little more sensibly.

EBC Yellowstuff 1793 compound is a true winner all round, it has high friction from cold, not requiring warm up for street use yet when loaded up and really hot the brakes just get better. Even up to truck weights these pads grip and do not heat fade.
