DP31537C
Overview:
The EBC Redstuff Rear Brake Pads are a premium upgrade designed specifically for the Subaru BRZ (2017–2022) and Toyota 86 (2018–2020). Engineered for drivers who demand superior braking performance with minimal dust and noise, these pads offer a perfect balance between street usability and spirited driving. Featuring a synthetic fiber-based compound enhanced with ceramic particles, Redstuff pads deliver strong initial bite and consistent stopping power as they heat up, making them ideal for fast street driving and premium sedans.
These pads are especially suited for enthusiasts seeking a reliable, low-dust solution that outperforms OEM pads in both longevity and braking efficiency. Their advanced formulation ensures quieter operation and reduced brake dust, keeping wheels cleaner without sacrificing performance.
Key Features:
Designed to provide exceptional braking performance with reduced dust and noise, the EBC Redstuff Rear Brake Pads include the following key features:
- Up to 90% reduction in brake dust compared to standard pads, with dust easily cleaned off due to the absence of steel fibers
- Strong initial bite from cold, matching or exceeding OEM pad performance
- Ceramic-enhanced synthetic fiber compound for improved durability and quieter operation
- Proven to reduce stopping distance by up to 13 meters from 100 mph (160 kph) compared to OEM pads
- EBC Brake-In surface coating accelerates pad bed-in and conditions the rotor surface
- Nominal friction coefficient of approximately 0.5 for consistent braking power
- Low heat fade for reliable performance during repeated heavy braking
- ECE R90 approved for brake safety compliance
- Designed for vented rotors with dimensions: 316mm diameter, 68mm height, 20mm thickness
- FMSI Pad Number: D961
Construction & Design:
The Redstuff pads utilize a cutting-edge synthetic fiber-based brake compound enhanced with ceramic particles, setting them apart from traditional semi-metallic or organic pads. This advanced material formulation delivers a hard-wearing surface that improves with heat, providing better braking performance over time. Unlike many other pads that contain steel fibers, Redstuff pads produce minimal dust that is non-abrasive and easy to clean, preserving wheel aesthetics.
The pads are engineered to fit vented rotors precisely, ensuring optimal contact and heat dissipation. Their robust construction supports extended pad life and consistent performance, even under demanding driving conditions.
Performance & Sound
EBC Redstuff pads offer a strong and confident initial bite, comparable to or better than original equipment pads, right from cold. As the pads warm up, their braking efficiency improves, making them well-suited for spirited driving and repeated heavy braking scenarios. The ceramic-enhanced compound also contributes to quieter braking with reduced noise and vibration, enhancing overall driving comfort.
Installation & Fitment:
These rear brake pads are designed as a direct fit replacement for the Subaru BRZ (2017–2022) and Toyota 86 (2018–2020) models equipped with compatible vented rotors. Installation requires no modifications and can be completed using standard brake service procedures. Drivers should allow a bed-in period of up to 1000 miles for the pads to fully conform to the rotor surface, ensuring optimal performance and longevity.
What's Included:
- Set of rear brake pads (left and right)
- Brake-In surface coating applied for accelerated bed-in
- Installation instructions
Ideal For:
The EBC Redstuff Rear Brake Pads are ideal for fast street drivers, enthusiasts, and owners of the Subaru BRZ and Toyota 86 who want a premium brake upgrade.
