EBC 01-03 BMW 530i 3.0 (E39) Greenstuff Front Brake Pads

Designed for premium street driving offering better brake effect up to 600-degrees C (1100-degrees F). EBC Greenstuff has a high initial brake effect and gives drivers confidence from first application of the brake pedal. There is no such thing as a NO DUST pad. The very nature of how a brake works requires that some dust be generated to avoid rotor vibration (shimmying). The EBC pad creates less dust and dust is more easily washed off than most. All pads create more dust as they are bedding in especially if rotors are worn. Nominal friction coefficient 0.55. For heavier faster cars and vehicles above 200bhp we strongly recommend Redstuff which DOES offer much less dust.
EBC Greenstuff 2000 series is a high friction pad designed to improve stopping power on sport sedans and prestige cars alike. The Greenstuff range emits less dust and feature the EBC brake-in surface coating to accelerate pad bed in.
