Re: [ST] Tale of the EBC brake pads

[Bil Swartz <bil@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Now using EBC instead of OEM due to sticker shock too, and am very pleased
with 'em.  I put the new kevlars on when I put the EBC rotors on and am
loving the feel of them, very predictable and good stopping power.  I had
the HH's on when I replaced the rotors but noticed the dragging sound you
reported and a not so freely spinning front wheel.  I replaced 'em with
the kevlars and did as good a cleaning up of the piston walls as I could
and noticed a major improvement in clearance but didn't go back to the
HH's...which I will after the kevlars are used up.

So far so good with 'em, betting I could kick the rear end up off the
ground with 'em but not gonna go there!
