lovin' my EBC reds. Otherwise I just put quietstop ceramics on my wifes CTS and they are def. better than stock and no dust problems either.
Pros: better than stock, no dust
Replaced the rear Brake Pads and Rotors on my 2005 V8 this morning. Turned out to be a pretty easy, straight forward job. 30-45 min. per side.
Pros: easy, straight forward job

Re: (rhouse181) Quote, originally posted by rhouse181 \u00bb that bearing shattered... it didn't wear due to poor or inadequate lubrication. looks more like manufacturing defect, the outer layer on the bearing shell delaminated and rolled around for awhile. sorry to say this, but that crank is toast... i would start searching for a good used one out of a wrecked motor. this.

Pros: Red Stuff Pads
Vehicle:

I've had EBC dimpled/slotted rotors with red stuff pads and they work pretty well. They are kinda noisy during braking but aside from that I haven't had any issues. The red pads are amazingly low on brake dust too
Pros: work pretty well, low brake dust
Cons: kinda noisy during braking
I have had EBC brakes for two years now with zero problems other than the ticking sound from the air hitting the dimples.
Pros: zero problems
Cons: ticking sound
I currently have EBC Yellowstuff in the front and EBC Redstuff in the rear, so I should have a little more front bias.
Pros: more front bias

I ran the SCCA PDX on June 15 on the Summit Point Main Circuit. The burning brake smell that several other drivers remarked on turned out to be the stench of my EBC reds and stock rear pads decomposing.
Cons: burning brake smell, decomposing
i had a set of EBC greens a few years ago that cracked and actually separated themselves from the metal backing plate.
Cons: cracked, separated
