JCW brake install
 

I just scored a great deal on used JCW brake kit for my 2013 MCS. I need to install new pads when I install them. Which pads? I only do street driving, no track. What are people recommending / using?

Hawk (which model?), OEM JCW or EBC?

We use the EBC reds on the JCW brakes for street use as they work great, have good feel and low dust without breaking the bank.

We sell the Hawks too, but not had good luck with them so I don't use them

I have EBC Reds in my JCW kit. Fine for daily street driving but I have experienced brake fade on some spirited mountain road driving, considering switching to Yellows or Hawk HP Plus.

I pulled the trigger on OEM mini pads. Maybe I should have considered Hawk or EBC pads. I thought I read good things about the OEM pads?

The OEM pads work well but are really dusty. EBC reds are great for street, much less dust. That's what I have in now.

I already ordered OEM pads, but will return them once they arrive. I just ordered EBC red pads from WMW.
