Review on πŸš— EBC Brakes UD1107 Ultimax Brake Pad - High-Quality OEM Replacement for Enhanced Performance by Nate Ducey

Revainrating 2 out of 5

These brake pads are too soft in terms of pedal feel

I bought my VW GTI new and the factory front brake pads lasted 78,000 miles. Factory pads at VW from German production are semi-metallic. Pedal feel was a little stiff, but the factory pads provided realistic feedback. The pedal feel is too soft with these EBC pads. It's okay if you drive really slow in stop-and-go traffic, but it sucks if you drive with spirit and even normal. My car stops closer, but it's easier to initiate wheel lock at high speeds before the ABS kicks in, as it's difficult to accurately modulate the brakes with these pads.

Pros
  • Original equipment
Cons
  • Negative gift
