What's your experience? Looking at the EBC Web page the Red Stuff look the way to go? Thoughts?

I tried Green stuff on previous cars and didn't find them much better than standard in any way. I have Red stuff on the zed and they are excellent, plenty of feel less dust and very good wear. I haven't tried any of the others. the only downside I have found with the Red stuff is that they are prone to pad deposit on the discs leading to a bit of judder. A good blast and a bit of hard braking gets rid of it with no apparent in increase in wear.

I'm finding a bit of pad transfer with the EBC pads I used but as Mike said you soon clean it off!

I used Greenstuff on my Jeep Cherokee and that improved the braking from 'not very good' to 'quite acceptable'. I've just bought Greenstuff for the back of the Z but haven't fitted them yet.
