What is the best racing brake pads and disc for the EQB250
I like to ask if anyone change their brake pads and disc to racing ones?
which MB car has the same brakes as the EQB?
Which brands and parts numbers will fit the car?

FWIW, the EQB is a modified GLB. The GLB is based on the Mercedes MFA2 platform which is shared with the A-class and GLA.
I don't know how the ICE car brakes vs electrical brakes differ, but you can try the GLB35 AMG brakes. However front brakes need min 19" wheel size. The stopping distance for GLB250 is 122 ft vs GLB35 is 107 ft. That difference might be also due to tires on the each vehicle. GLB250 comes with standard Conti A/S run flats vs GLB35 has usually wider Conti 6 UHP summer tires esp for test vehicles. Performance based tires eg UHP summer or UHP A/S tires will shorten your braking distance, but they might reduce your EV range... I switched from 255/35ZR21 Conti 6 summer tires to 255/35ZR21 Michelin PS A/S 4 UHP T0 Tesla original tires on GLB35. Also I see that Michelin has a Pilot Sport EV summer tire for electrical vehicles as well.
That's good to know they make EV summer tires, I will check them out.
The range is not a problem for me in HK so I what to try out the continental sportcontact7
In HK we don't have snow and it dose not gets that cold in winter, I have used UUHP summer tires for all my cars and all year round.
You can also go for GLA45 brakes which are bigger than the GLB35 brakes... Again these cars are not track cars with the boxy structures. GLB35 is approximately 2" lower than GLB250 to give better cornering abilities in addition to stiff AMG shocks. EQB with the battery might help with the center of gravity, but then the extra battery weight hampers the cornering from my test drive with the hybrid cars vs ICE cars. Motortrend car reviews have track numbers to show that.

Continental 6 with AMG shocks were brutal to drive in NYC roads with 21" wheels, but they are very sticky tires. NYC temp + usual commute doesn't increase tire heat much to become more compliant... Conti 7 has even better performance from what I have seen...
Thanks for the info
For EV cars no need for big brakes because of the friction brakes. I will set the friction brakes to normal. Changing the stock pads and disc to racing 1s is OK
