Im looking for the best brakes and rotors for my front end of my escape. I have been researching and the EBC Rotors and Red stuff pads seem like a good fit.. I wanted to know what everyone else is using in there Escape.

I thought redstuff pads were a racing application. I use HD greenstuff pads (Part number 71616), made a vast difference to the levels of brake dust on the front wheels. Can't remember if they made much difference to the stopping or pedal feel (They've been on a while), but the dust issue alone is a reason to buy IMO. :thumb:
I'm using standard Ford-fit discs. It's real hard to get aftermarket parts for the Maverick/Escape over here.

Solved the problem though, the brake dust issue has been resolved.

I would have thought EBC rotors would be easy to source over there. Considering they are made there.
You'd think so, but the Maverick is such a rare sight over here, I don't think anyone bothers stocking them. :roll:
