Default Seeking Information On EBC Greenstuff Brakepads

Has anyone had any experience with the EBC Greenstuffs, or any EBC products? They look rather nifty but a buddy of mine said he had heard about squeaking problems on some cars. Just wanna know before I drop any green of my own.

I used to have them. Tore up my vented/slotted rotors.

Use stock honda pads, unless you're street racing all the time

The EBCs are ok, but nothing awesome..
If you want a great street pad Hawk HP+ are the way to go..

And I highly doubt that they tore up your rotors, pads don't do that unless they are pure race pads.. And crossdrilled/slotted are junk and crack easily..

They were grooved to hell dude.
I had to have them shaved at John Collins.

BTW: I've had those rotors for 3 years and they rule. You must be buyin them cheap *** bootleged rotors!

both you guys, get brembos and your rotor problems will go away.. I run my carbotech panthers on the street and the rotors look new, even after many track days..

do you know how HARD it is to change rotors on an Accord? The rotors on an Accord are pressed on. $250 a side to just takem off and put the new ones on.
