Designed for enthusiasts seeking superior braking performance with minimal dust, the EBC Redstuff Ceramic Rear Brake Pads for BMW 3 Series (E46) offer an excellent upgrade over OEM components. These pads utilize a synthetic fiber-based compound enhanced with ceramic particles, providing consistent braking from cold and improving with heat. The advanced formulation ensures that you experience shorter stopping distances, as much as 13 meters quicker from 100 mph, while maintaining quieter operation and reduced dust emissions. The inclusion of the EBC Brake-In surface coating helps condition your rotors and accelerates the bed-in process, ensuring optimal performance and longevity.
Constructed with vented design and precise dimensions, these pads are tailored for a perfect fit on the specified BMW models. The Nominal friction coefficient of 0.5 provides reliable braking consistency, making them ideal for spirited driving or heavy braking situations. Their durable composition allows for bed-in times up to 1000 miles, during which patience is essential to achieve the best contact between pad and rotor. These pads are compliant with ECE R90 safety standards, ensuring they meet strict regulatory requirements for brake performance and safety.
Whether you drive a passenger car, sport compact, or hot hatch, the EBC Redstuff Ceramic Pads deliver improved braking response, longer wear, and significantly less dust compared to semi-metallic alternatives. Compared to earlier EBC Red compounds, these pads are a leap forward in performance, durability, and noise reduction, making them an excellent choice for daily drivers and performance enthusiasts alike.
