[robcastle 0]

Hi all, i would appreciate some advice.After refurbing my trackday 1.9gti rear brakes i was thinking of installing some uprated pads namely ebc greenstuff. Are they any good and is it worth shelling out for more expensive pads on the rear brakes?Thanks Rob

are you overheating the standard pads? (Very much doubt it) if not, don't bother.

No they are garbage, save your money.

 

is it worth shelling out for more expensive pads on the rear brakes?

 

Not really on a tarmac car, on a gravel car where you left foot brake a lot of the time then possibly.
