EBC red stuff is what the guys at ECS use on their personal cars. It's ceramic but embedded with kevlar. Same low dust but has the initial bite like oem pads. My buddy has them and loves them. They're what I'm going to use next change.

Quick update for you guys. had the pads on for about a week now with some hard core driving! No squeal and no dust! I was so surprised the second day i had them on i was messing around with my ferrari and lambo friends with high speed runs and hard stops and the wheels looked like i just washed them. If you rub your finger youll see a very light powdering but barely anything. As for the brake feel, the initial bite isnt as aggressive as stock but works just fine just a slightly different pedal feel. I cant believe i didnt do this on my F10 M5 before now im glad i did it on the F06!

I’ll be doing it tomorrow along with a line lock so I’ll write back. I’m just changing the pads no discs i have 24000mls. Do a search on google people have switched from carbontech to these. A lot of good reviews and they have carbon fiber in the material I’m sure not much but.

Nope as long as the rotors are not below minimum thickness. Just make sure you bed the brakes properly.

Kimo, did you install the EBC Redstuff? Any feedback? My front set (Cool Carbon) has seen better days.
