So nice to see such good advertising for EBC! I work in their research and development labs and so get to try the new stuff first plus all the competitions. Some of the stuff out there is shocking!!! Running EBC HH sintered pads on the front and the organic kevlars on the back and it works well as a combination. Sintered on the rear just made me trash tyres to quickly. They are designed to run on EBC rotors so that might help with your OE wear issue.

My next set of rotors will be the Pro-lites, so that'll be fine!

Should have my EBC double-H pads wednesday. I'm hoping they're as grabby as they say... Combined with my Corsas, they should be the shiznit.

kuhlka, with the sintered they do take a few hard stops to bed in so be careful out there!! I have been out and overshot my braking markers when bedding cos it takes a bit to get it there.....but once they have full contact they really do inspire confidence in your braking. And there is no brake fade with sintered so you can hammer them again and again and again. I usually take the long way home just to do that with long fast sections and a series of roundabouts.........magic!

Oh I plan to bed them in really good right after I get them installed. Start out light and gradually add more lever until they're really grabbing. I'm hoping these might help with the stoppie practice.
