Default 30K brake pad change

Went with EBC greens. Pads worn just below the wear mark. Rears looked decent for now.

Let us know how you like the EBC green pads. I haven't seen anybody here use them.

It maybe a while since I don't drive much. I'm still breaking in the new pads so can't say for sure if there is less brake dust or comment on the stopping power. So far they feel great with no vibrations and no squeals. Did some hard breaking at 40+ MPH and so far so good.

Are these F Sport or non-F Sport brakes?

looks like non f sport to me since it doesn't have the 2 pieces rotor.

Only the RWD F Sport come with 2 piece rotors. OP probably has AWD F Sport.

Did you measure your rotors? Just curious as I see a lip on them, which is usually indicative of them being worn.

EBC makes a very good pad. I have used them in the past with great success on other cars. I also like Power Stop pads, good value for money.
