Hi Fellas,
Brake wear sensor has been on for a while on my R53 JCW. Looks like I need to replace the pads (and rotors?).

Thoughts and vendors on pads will be appreciated. I'm thinking of EBC Greenstuff.

No track, just spirited driving. Cold and wet weather performance is important.

Thanks in advance.

 

Way Motor Works. Find him the vendor section of this site.

 

Cool, Thanks. What do you think of drilled rotors for street driving? Worth it, or a waste of money?

 

Total waste of money but bling-factor high. Stock-spec rotors are best. Slotted if you want to spend $, look racy and make a whirring noise. Unless you have well over 60k miles of hard braking, I seriously doubt your rotors are near the end of their life. Anyway, the rule of thumb is: Break in new pads on old rotors. Break in new rotors with old pads. Only when both have gone South would I do both at the same time.

 

for the JCW brakes I would definetly recommend the EBC Redstuff, they are just so much better than the Green even for a daily driver.

Then for rotors we have some super affordable Drilled and slotted for that:

Thanks Way.
How are the Redstuf vs Green on noise and COLD performance. by cold I mean below zero.

Dust is not of a concern.
