The EBC Greenstuff Rear Brake Pads (DP2871 / 840655013228), the unrivaled choice for performance enthusiasts seeking superior stopping power, eco-friendly design, and unmatched reliability for their 1994-1996 BMW 840Ci 4.0 (E31). Engineered to outperform all other brake pads in their class, these pads deliver a premium braking experience that redefines safety and control, making them the definitive choice for discerning drivers.
Why Greenstuff?
The EBC Greenstuff 2000 Series is the pinnacle of street-performance brake pads, offering a 10-15% improvement in braking efficiency over stock pads, ensuring shorter stopping distances and razor-sharp response. Unlike competitors, these pads are crafted with a medium-to-low dust formulation, keeping your wheels cleaner while maintaining exceptional grip. With a nominal friction coefficient of 0.55, they provide a high initial bite, instilling confidence from the first press of the pedal, even under spirited driving conditions.
Designed for premium street driving, the Greenstuff DP2871 pads excel in urban and highway environments, offering superior heat resistance to prevent fade during repeated heavy braking. Their eco-friendly composition—free of lead, copper, and toxic sulfides—complies with stringent environmental regulations and earns the prestigious Leaf Mark for sustainability, making them the responsible choice for performance and planet. Certified to ECE R90 standards, these pads are fully road-legal across Europe and beyond, guaranteeing safety without compromise.
Unlike other aftermarket options, the Greenstuff DP2871 is tailored for the BMW 840Ci 4.0 (E31), ensuring perfect fitment and hassle-free installation. While not intended for track use, their robust design has proven effective in demanding scenarios like hillclimb events, offering versatility for enthusiastic drivers. Compared to EBC’s Redstuff or Yellowstuff, the Greenstuff strikes the ideal balance for daily-driven sports coupes, delivering performance without excessive dust or wear on rotors.

Performance Benefits
Vs. OEM Pads: Greenstuff DP2871 offers sharper initial bite, reduced stopping distances, and lower dust output, all at a competitive price point.
Vs. Other Aftermarket Pads: Competitors often sacrifice dust control or rotor life for performance. Greenstuff balances all three, with minimal disc wear and a medium-to-good pad lifespan.
Vs. EBC Redstuff/Yellowstuff: Redstuff produces less dust but is better suited for heavier vehicles, while Yellowstuff is track-focused. Greenstuff is the optimal choice for the 840Ci’s sporty yet street-oriented nature.
Installation Notes
Direct Replacement: Designed as a plug-and-play upgrade for stock rear pads, requiring no modifications.
Warning: Do not install performance pads on the rear axle unless the front axle is also upgraded to maintain brake balance.
Bedding-In: Pads generate more dust during initial bedding, especially with worn rotors. Follow EBC’s bedding procedure for optimal performance.
Tools Required: Standard brake service tools (e.g., caliper tool, torque wrench). Professional installation recommended for best results.
