I had the Green Stuff at all four corners. The fronts died way early after a lapping day. I just got some Red Stuff for the fronts as the pads in the rear are still holding up. This mis-matched setup has made for a nice balance. For around town they are great. Very grippy. Plus the squeal is cool. After a few autocrosses they started squealing at low speed such as parking lot speed. It adds character.

Quick correction to what I said before-I plan to try the reds not the yellows (which have black plates oddly enough).



Jerk:

I noticed on the website the reds are not listed as a "low dust pad." In your experience how do they compare to the greens in that respect? Do they always squeal or just when moist or after autocrossing/spirited driving With an unmuffled airpump and aftermarket suspension my car makes enough ghetto noises as it is.



FROM THE WEBSITE:

http://www.ebcbrakes.com/



EBC V4 Greenstuff: Triple Max Power Award winning Greenstuff are the ultimate performance/fast street brake pads you can get for your hot hatch or sport compact. These pads have a high friction coefficient, great initial bite from cold, right up to a blistering 650 degrees centigrade. Another major benefit of the Greenstuff compound is its award winning feature of being LOW DUST. Being awarded the UK magazines Autotrade Innovation Award for its low dust features, Greenstuff pads cut down between 60-90% of the dust common with most competitive types of semi-metallic pad on your alloys keeping wheels cleaner and delivering performance at the same time. Greenstuff pads are available for a huge range of cars, SUV’s, light trucks and mini vans.



EBC V2 Redstuff EBC’s high performance road compound, the next grade up from Greenstuff, Redstuff pads deliver unparalleled stopping power up to a blistering 750°C, making them extremely suitable for cars such as M3, Mitsubishi Evo, Subaru Impreza etc. Recommended for road cars with 200+ BHP.





EBC Yellowstuff EBC’s entry level race material Yellowstuff has slightly lower friction than Greenstuff but with longer lifetime and slightly higher temperature resistance being effective up to over 800 degrees centigrade. The material has been used by many TRD development cars and racers alike, including Martin Bell in his championship winning BMW. Yellow is the choice for that extra percentage of life over and above our Greenstuff and Redstuff range. Yellowstuff is intended for short circuit races of 20 to 30 lap nature, see our Bluestuff for longer races. Yellowstuff is our recommended pad for trackday use.





EBC Bluestuff Our endurance grade, longest lasting material Bluestuff has a slightly lower friction coefficient than its counterparts Green, Yellow and Red but delivers far longer life and is suitable for endurance races up to six hours in duration on most types of saloon cars. It is obviously the drivers responsibility to evaluate the lifetime before undertaking any types of race use.
