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

The Redstuff pads are a hard-wearing compound and require a patient break-in period, which can take up to 1000 miles. During this time, the pads need to fully conform to the shape of your brake rotors to achieve optimal performance.

What makes the dust from these pads easier to clean?

The Redstuff Ceramic pads are formulated without steel fiber particles, which are common in many other brake pads. This means the minimal dust produced is less likely to bake onto your wheels and can be removed with a simple wash.

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

These pads are described as a fast street pad, ideal for repeated heavy braking. They offer good performance from cold and are designed for spirited driving and premium sedans, making them suitable for daily use where improved stopping power is desired.

Product Details

You're getting a set of EBC Redstuff Ceramic front brake pads, part number DP31986C. These pads are designed to be a significant upgrade for many European vehicles, including models like the Audi A4, A5, and S4. They aim to reduce dust by 60-90 percent compared to stock pads, and the dust that is produced is easy to clean because it doesn't contain steel fibers. You'll notice improved braking performance right from a cold start, and that performance continues to get better as the pads warm up, making them a solid choice for spirited driving and repeated heavy braking.

The Redstuff Ceramic compound uses a synthetic fiber base enhanced with ceramic particles. This updated material offers better longevity, quieter operation, and improved braking over older versions of Redstuff pads. While they are a hard-wearing pad, it's important to be patient during the break-in period, which can take up to 1000 miles for the pads to fully conform to your rotors. The pads feature an EBC Brake-In surface coating to help condition your rotors and speed up the bedding process. They've been proven to stop passenger cars significantly quicker than OEM pads from 100 mph.

Because these are a performance-oriented pad, allow for the full bed-in period to get the most consistent braking. They are approved to ECE R90 brake safety regulations, indicating they meet strict European standards.
