Default EBC greenstuff rumor ? ?

Has anyone experienced any problems with EBC greenstuff pads? A vendor suggested that I return the ones he sold me because they were " hard " on the rotors.

They ran great for me! I thought if anything, they helped rotor life?

Cool

Other than the fact that they have a reputation of not lasting as long as "normal" brake pads... They're fine.

I heard this as well from a vendor. I *did* experience warping in my cross-drilled/slotted rotors with EBC pads, but I blamed it more on a bad break-in. I've had no complaints with my pads so far, though. Nice on dust compared to others.
