EBC Greenstuff 2000 pads are regarded as a first level brake improvement over stock providing an improvement in stopping power over OE pads. The "Greenstuff 2000" formula in particular has pushed the barriers of performance of organic made friction materials. These brake pads have a specifically designed softer compound, that has been deliberately created to improve pedal feel for use on lighter cars at lower speeds. To complement the improvement on pedal feel, the compound allows for mid dust levels which will keep your wheels cleaner for longer as well as a strong lifecycle before the pads need replacing, whilst retaining minimal brake disc wear. All EBC Greenstuff 2000 brake pads are manufactured in the UK and are fully ECE R90 approved for road legal use in Europe.EBC's Greenstuff 2000 series has had the most success when used for racing and has proved to stop a car almost 20 feet quicker than OEM brake parts. This testing was performed by the UK MIRA Motor Vehicle Research Institute.
