Description
The EBC Yellowstuff Brake Pads are a high-performance dual-purpose brake upgrade engineered by EBC Brakes for the BMW 135 3.0 Twin Turbo platform. Designed for drivers who demand strong, fade-resistant braking on both the street and the track, Yellowstuff delivers consistent stopping power under conditions that overwhelm standard street pads.
EBC Yellowstuff pads are built using an advanced aramid fiber semi-metallic compound that provides a strong, predictable bite from cold while maintaining stable friction at elevated temperatures. This makes them ideal for spirited street driving, aggressive canyon use, autocross, and occasional track days.
Unlike many sport pads that fade when pushed hard, Yellowstuff maintains consistent pedal feel and braking torque through repeated high-speed stops. Each pad set is factory scorched for fast bed-in and immediate performance, while precision slots and chamfered edges help manage heat, reduce noise, and promote even wear.
The result is a brake pad that bridges the gap between street comfort and track capability, offering serious performance without the harshness of full race compounds.
