EBC 05-08 Acura RL 3.5 Greenstuff Front Brake Pads

The EBC Greenstuff 2000 Series brake pads are a solid option for your 2005-2012 Acura RL, especially if you're looking for improved stopping performance over stock. These pads are built to handle street driving and offer a noticeable boost in confidence from the first press of the pedal, thanks to their high initial brake effect. They're designed to perform well up to 1100 degrees Fahrenheit, which helps reduce heat fade during spirited driving or when carrying heavier loads.

While no brake pad is truly dust-free, the Greenstuff formulation is known for creating less dust than many other performance pads, and the dust that is generated tends to wash off more easily. The nominal friction coefficient is 0.55, contributing to their improved stopping power. These pads are a popular choice for lighter sport compacts and are a well-known performance upgrade for daily drivers seeking a more responsive feel.

When installing these pads, remember that proper bedding in is crucial, especially if your rotors are worn. This process helps ensure optimal performance and longevity. While these pads offer a significant improvement for street use, for heavier or faster vehicles above 200 horsepower, EBC recommends their Redstuff pads for even less dust.
