For the moment I'm only doing the fronts, will do the backs when the existing ones wear out.
I'm hoping the existing front pads are 1/2 remaining or better, if not I'll probably have to buy some local which won't be EBC ones... (I don't have time before next campout to order a set of their pads)
I didn't order a pad and rotor set when I got the rotors coming because I didn't know which ones of theirs were "good"/ "better"/best since I have never used EBC pads


Do some reading on their site. I believe the daily driver ones are ultimax. I find the dust objectionable. The color grades tell how track oriented they are and you might need to warm the brakes up before they start to bite. I would go back with oem pads unless you don’t care about dust, if you can live with that their daily pads will net you a bit better performance that you can tell right away.


I want my fair share
