I dont want to tell anyone that they are wrong but EBC pads create tons of dust. I'm not sure what everyone elses expereince has been but your rims will be covered with black dust after 2 days no doubt about it. I have experienced this first hand as well as many other members of my home club seloc.net.


Do a search I think you will get some more insight.

No one need be wrong. I am sure there are many experiences with every product. I for one have had very little break dust from my EBC'c on both my GS and my IS. I feel they work stronger on my GS but love them despite on both.

One things for sure those brakes grab something seriously, performance wise I dont think you can do better with a OEM sized pad.

taken from tirerack.com
NOTE: Ceramic pad material is recommended by the vehicle manufacturer and may have been supplied as Original Equipment. Replacing ceramic brake pads with pads of any other material may result in more brake dust or increased brake-related noise than originally installed pads.

I currently have their Ceramic pads, they are good but not as quite good as the EBC pads. They do create much less dust and during normal aggressive street driving I have had not fade problems. They did fade on the Dragon run last month though. They did however recover rather quickly.
