01Options and what their makers say
| COMPOUND | STATED TEMPERATURES | DUST / NOTES | SOURCE |
|---|---|---|---|
| EBC Brakes Redstuff Ceramic fast street; 'Race Use: No' | not stated | 'Dust Rating: Low' — 'reducing dust by 60–90%' EBC: 'lowest dust fast street pad'; 'Nominal friction coefficient 0.5'; bed-in 'can be as long as 1000 miles'; ECE R90 approved (most part numbers). | EBC Brakes — Redstuff Ceramic Brake Pads |
| EBC Brakes Yellowstuff (4000 series) fast street; not recommended by EBC for dedicated track use | fade threshold 400 °C (750 °F) — 'the maximum expected temperature in fast street driving' | not stated as low dust EBC: 'We no longer recommend Yellow for dedicated track use'; 'track conditions can push brake temperatures above 500–600 °C (1100 °F)'. R90 approved for street use in Europe. | EBC Brakes — EBC Yellowstuff Fast Street Brake Pads |
| Hawk Performance HPS 5.0 street ('High Performance Street') | 100–750 °F operating; 100–550 °F optimal | not stated Hawk: 'shorter stopping distances, improved performance under heavy braking conditions, and street car friendly characteristics'; not compatible with carbon-ceramic rotors. | Hawk Performance — HPS 5.0 |
Street compounds bite from cold and dust less; track compounds need heat (Hawk's DTC ranges start at 400 °F) and are not listed for street. EBC says Yellowstuff is a street pad and that track use pushes past its 400 °C fade threshold. None of these makers publish a per-car pad recommendation here; per-car part numbers are missing until read from the maker's catalog.
