EBC Brake Pads

[560SEL]

Anyone ever tried these pads? They claim to offer dust free braking and zero rotor damage guaranteed. Seems to good to be true..

Haven't heard of EBC, but I just put a set of Carbotech pads on the ZR-1 that are supposed to be low dust and rotor friendly. I'll let you know as soon as I've got some miles on 'em. Check with Larry @Carbotech (877) 899-5024. He's a really nice guy who knows his brakes, pads down!

EBC has been building racing brake pads for motorcycles for years, have seen articles in english car magazines on performance of these pads for cars. ON "paper" they look good.

How are your pads holding up Gary? I'm about to change mine. Unfortunately EBC doesn's make pads for my model. Are there any other pads out there that are rotor friendly, give less dust than OEM pads, and perform well?

www.ebc-brakes.com www.brakeco.com carries many W124 (front) pads for $79/pair + shipping or you can order them directly from ebc. Just got a set for the Miata ($49). Brit car magazines LOVE The Green Stuff and the Miata crowd seems very supportive. Will report back on them in a few weeks...
