It's good to see that SOMEONE is taking my warnings seriously.

BTW, I just updated the referenced page. With all of the rain that we've had in the north east over the past several weeks, I can report that wet braking performance is the same as previously reported.

I also wrote a bit more about the brake dust issue: EBC Green Stuff dust is brown, not white (like the PBR Deluxe) or black (like Volvo OEM). Most importantly, though, it doesn't accumulate nearly as quickly as stock.

Lastly, no squeaks! With everything that I've read on this forum and others lately about squealing from aftermarket pads, I thought some owners might appreciate knowing that there's a solution. Note that I used Permatex Disc Brake Quiet on the pads.

Hope that helps.
