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

These are a hard-wearing pad designed for performance, and EBC recommends a bed-in period of up to 1000 miles. During this time, the pad material needs to conform to the shape of your brake rotors for optimal performance.

What makes the dust from these pads easier to clean?

The Redstuff pads use a synthetic fiber and ceramic compound that does not contain steel fiber particles, which are common in other pads. This results in less dust overall, and the dust that is produced is easier to remove with a simple wash.

Are these pads suitable for everyday driving or just track use?

These pads are specifically designed as a fast street pad and are ideal for premium sedans like your Audi A8 Quattro. They offer improved stopping power from cold and are well-suited for repeated heavy braking situations you might encounter on the road.

Product Details

When you're looking to improve your Audi A8 Quattro's braking performance, especially for fast street driving, these EBC Redstuff ceramic pads are a solid option. They're built with a synthetic fiber compound that's enhanced with ceramic particles, which is a big step up from older materials. This design means they work well right from a cold start, and their performance actually gets better as they heat up, making them great for repeated heavy braking situations.

One of the most notable benefits customers appreciate is the significant reduction in dust – EBC claims 60-90 percent less than standard pads. The dust that is produced is also easier to clean because it doesn't contain steel fibers. While these pads are designed for hard wear and can take up to 1000 miles to fully bed in, the patience pays off with improved stopping power. They've been shown to stop passenger cars quicker than OEM pads, and the included EBC Brake-In surface coating helps condition your rotors to speed up the process.

These pads are a popular choice for European vehicles like your A8 Quattro, offering a noticeable upgrade over stock components. They meet ECE R90 brake safety regulations, so you can be confident in their performance.
