About ‘Redstuff’ padsEver since EBC introduced this ceramic material in 2003, it has been receiving positive write ups from performance car drivers. Redstuff pads have a friction factor of 0.5 (standard road pads have a friction factor of about 0.3, and Greenstuff has 0.46). They offer a significant improvement in brake performance and superb resistance to high temperature brake fade. Recommended Usage EBC recommend these pads for medium to heavy weight cars, and/or those with over 200bhp. They’re ideal for fast road & track day use. Short warm-up time and amazing stopping power make them the competition pad that can be used for everyday road use too. The ‘Warm-up’ Procedure As you would expect from such a high performance pad Redstuff is designed to operate effectively at higher temperatures. This means that the first use of the brakes in each journey is used to ‘warm-up’ the pads and discs. From there on the pads will remain at their optimum warm temperature. Kinder to Alloy Wheels Redstuff pads cut down between 60-90% of the dust common with most performance pads. They are kinder to alloys and allow wheels to look cleaner & shinier for longer. What’s Included? Pads are always supplied in front or rear sets. Each set includes four individual pads which are enough for a pair of brake calipers. IMPORTANT NOTE There are several different pads listed below. Please order according to the year of manufacture of your M5. If in doubt please double check by measuring the original pads fitted to your car.
