I agree! The only way to go, just replaced mine on my 2016 F3T and what a big difference they
make in stopping power!

Another vote for the EBC pads. They are much better than OEM.

I swapped out the stock pads on my old 2012 RSS for EBC semi metallics from BR. I'd guestimate a 10-15% improvment in stopping power over the stock pads.

The pads on my F3S stop fine but dust like crazy :mad:! The stock pads on my Ford Focus did the same darn thing; I have no idea why any manufacturer would put such pads on vehicles with nice alloy wheels.

Anyway, I swapped out the Focus pads for Centric ceramic pads (from the Tire Rack). Stopped as good as stock and only about 1/20th of the brake dust! If EBC (or anyone else for that matter) offers a ceramic pad for my F3S---that will be my first choice; otherwise I'll go with the EBC semi metallics again; based on my RSS experience with them.
