How long does it take to break in these EBC Redstuff brake pads?

These pads are a harder-wearing compound and may require a longer break-in period, potentially up to 1000 miles. It's important to be patient until the pad material fully conforms to the shape of your brake rotors for optimal performance.

What makes the brake dust from these pads easier to clean?

The minimal dust produced by these Redstuff pads does not contain steel fiber particles, unlike many other pads. This means the dust is less likely to bake onto your wheels and can be removed more easily with a simple wash.

Do these brake pads come with everything needed for installation?

This listing is for the EBC Redstuff front brake pads only. Hardware such as shims or clips may or may not be included; it is recommended to refer to the manufacturer's instructions or consult with a technician to confirm what is included and if any additional hardware is required for your specific vehicle.

About this part

Product Details

If you're looking to upgrade the braking performance on your 2000-2006 Lincoln LS, these EBC Redstuff ceramic brake pads are a solid option. They're designed to offer a noticeable improvement over stock pads, especially for drivers who do a lot of highway or spirited driving. The Redstuff material is a synthetic fiber compound enhanced with ceramic particles, which helps them perform well right from a cold start and get even better as they warm up.

One of the biggest reasons people choose Redstuff pads is for their low-dust characteristics. EBC claims they can reduce dust by 60-90 percent compared to other pads, and the dust that is produced is easier to clean because it doesn't contain steel fibers. This means less brake dust buildup on your wheels. They're also built for repeated heavy braking, offering a strong friction coefficient that can stop a passenger car quicker than OEM pads from higher speeds. Keep in mind that these are a harder-wearing pad, so they may require a longer break-in period, up to 1000 miles, to fully seat against your rotors.

These pads also feature EBC's Brake-In surface coating, which helps condition your rotor surface and speeds up the initial bed-in process. They are approved to ECE R90 brake safety regulations, indicating they meet stringent European standards. For best results, be patient during the break-in period to ensure they conform properly to your brake rotors.
