[QUOTE="E46Fanatic, post: 37349, member: 81"] I used EBC green stuff on my EK4 and while I like the initial stronger bite feel of the pads (on stock discs), on hard high speed braking, the discs judder probably due to warping from the added heat buildup on the stock rotors from the more grippy pads. So in summary, its good to match your pads and discs for overall performance.So far the OEM BMW brakes are very good, except, for the excessive brake dust compared to things like EBC green stuff. Anyway, I doubt I go aftermarket and will likely go with OEM rotors and pads again on my next change. Seen articles on the amount of stress testing BMW engineers put into the brake system till it glows red hot, and somehow based on my exp, that level of balance is hard to come by unless u pay the big bucks for a Brembo/ AP Racing complete brake system ..
