EBC Redstuff Rear Brake Pads
2005–2010 Scion tC
DP31456C
Overview:
The EBC Redstuff Rear Brake Pads are engineered specifically for the 2005 to 2010 Scion tC, delivering exceptional braking performance tailored for fast street driving and prestige import vehicles. These high-performance pads offer a unique combination of very high friction and low heat fade, ensuring consistent stopping power even under demanding conditions. Designed for drivers who demand superior braking without the mess of excessive brake dust, Redstuff pads provide a cleaner, quieter, and more durable alternative to conventional brake pads.
Ideal for enthusiasts and daily drivers alike, these pads excel in reducing brake dust by up to 90%, keeping wheels cleaner and maintenance easier. Their advanced compound also improves with heat, offering better bite and control as the brakes warm up, making them perfect for spirited driving and repeated heavy braking scenarios.
Key Features:
Redstuff pads incorporate advanced materials and design to deliver outstanding performance and longevity. Key features include:
- Lowest dust rating in the EBC range, reducing brake dust by 60-90%
- Kevlar® fiber-based compound enhanced with ceramic particles for superior friction
- High friction coefficient of approximately 0.5 for strong stopping power
- Low heat fade ensures consistent braking performance under heavy use
- Brake-In surface coating accelerates pad bed-in and conditions the rotor surface
- Quieter operation with no steel fiber particles, minimizing noise and vibration
- Proven to reduce stopping distance by up to 13 meters from 100 mph compared to OEM pads
- Durable construction designed for fast road use and repeated heavy braking
- Includes both left and right rear pads for a complete axle replacement
Construction & Design:
The EBC Redstuff pads utilize a cutting-edge Kevlar® fiber-based brake compound that is enhanced with ceramic particles, setting them apart from traditional semi-metallic pads. This advanced formulation provides a hard-wearing surface that resists fade and maintains consistent friction levels even during aggressive driving. Unlike many other pads, Redstuff contains no steel fibers, which significantly reduces brake dust and makes cleaning easier.
The pads feature a proprietary brake-in coating that helps condition the rotor surface, promoting quicker and more effective bedding-in. While the initial bed-in period can extend up to 1,000 miles, this process ensures the pads conform perfectly to the rotor for optimal contact and performance over their lifespan.
Performance & Sound
From cold stops to high-temperature braking, EBC Redstuff pads deliver confident and progressive braking feel. They provide excellent initial bite comparable to or better than OEM pads and improve as they heat up, making them ideal for spirited street driving. The ceramic-enhanced compound also minimizes brake noise and vibration, offering a quieter and more comfortable driving experience compared to many semi-metallic alternatives.
Installation & Fitment:
These rear brake pads are designed as a direct fit replacement for the 2005–2010 Scion tC, requiring no modifications for installation. They come as a complete pair, including both left and right side pads, making axle servicing straightforward. For best results, follow EBC’s recommended bedding-in procedure to ensure optimal pad-to-rotor contact and performance longevity.
What's Included:
- One pair of EBC Redstuff rear brake pads (left and right sides)
- Brake-in surface coating applied
Ideal For:
The EBC Redstuff Rear Brake Pads are perfect for Scion tC owners who want enhanced braking performance for fast street driving without the drawbacks of excessive brake dust or noise. They suit drivers who demand reliable stopping power during spirited driving, daily commuting, or premium sedan use, and who appreciate longer pad life and cleaner wheels.
