"Excellent product, much lower dusting levels than OEM, braking is as good as or better than OEM, they lasted just as long as OEM, I got ~40K miles or better before I put my second set of EBC pads on. I run slotted/drilled rotors so that seemed to have no effect on pad wear. the rotors were not overly worn and will run for at least another set of pads if not a third (ie the pads do not seem to eat up the rotors any faster than OEM)."

"I had heard about these brake pads from a few auto forums and decided to give them a try. My '02 Toyota Solara never seemed to have good brakes, which concerned me for such a heavy car. Installing the green stuff pads was a bit of a pain, requiring a bit of filing since they fit my caliper clips a little too tight right out of the box. The pads come with a nice adhesive shim pad that eliminates any noise or squeals. The pads also have a "break in" coating that facilitates the surface mating between the rotors and pads, and it takes a week or so of city driving to scrub that off - during that time the braking effect is only slightly diminished. The pads have added modulation that I didn't have before, a slight touch brings them on and they feel progressive right to the point of wheel lock. I now feel that my car will safely respond when I need it to stop instead of the vague feel I used to get. Now I just need to get a set for my wife's car too !! These pads are all I will use going forward...."

"These pads are way better than stock on our 4Runner, however they do produce more dust than the OEM. They are quiet (haven't heard a squeal yet) and great pedal feel. I just hope after a few 1000 or so miles the dust will settle down."

"Put these on my 05' Sequoia and was very pleased. They put a suface coating on the pads to clean up the rotors and I thought it did a great job. Breaking has been greatly improved my wife has noticed greater stopping power and better initial grip. I thought the color would stand out but its pretty hidden behind the calipers. I also liked the anti-noise shims they provide, the actually stick on so its quick and easy installation. So far I have 300 miles on them and as for right now I will definitely by these in the future."

"These pads are built with OEM quality, and even had both backing pads and the factory spring holes in the right place. They grip better than stock, but do have a tiny initial application noise (chirp). So great if you want an upgrade, not great if you want perfectly quiet."

"I've always heard good things about EBC Green Stuff brake pads. Always seen them advertised on TV and recommended on PowerBlock TV. Now that I've tried them, their going on all my trucks. I put them on my 2005 Trailblazer, the absolute easiest brake install I've ever done and I do alot! The anti-vibration adhesive mat they include is impressive. Much cleaner than the anti-vibration gel I normally use. The brake dust is minimal and the braking power is awesome. You can really feel a difference. I would highly recommend them to anyone, their worth the money. And, you won't be disappointed!"

"I was very impressed with the quality of these pads. Exact fit. When properly installed,as they were, these brake pads are very good. I installed them on my 3/4 ton pick-up. I did all four wheels. I noticed instant results. Very good stopping power even on a very heavy vehicle. It's been about 3 to 4 hundred miles now. They are seated and broken in now and have great stopping power. I am very pleased and will definately purchase these pads again. Thanks to "Auto Anything" I found another great product."

"Very easy install. Ordered front and rear but only installed rear so far because they were the worst and I didn't have enough time to do them all. Took less than 1 hour with only a socket wrench and floor jack. Stopping power is much better than stock but they can be a little squeaky in stop and go traffic. Overall good-less brake dust after over 500 miles including some hard off road (sand) driving."

"I've had the EBC Green pads installed in my 92 Camry for about a week now. Wow, what a difference! The initial cold bite is very strong, I keep finding myself stopping too early with these pads. Once they warm up a bit, it seems that they bite even harder."

"I put these on a '05 Ford Ranger after the OEM pad wore out. No real complaint with the stock pads just thought I would do an upgrade. The EBC Green Stuff Pads seem to have better stopping power but not enough to justify the increased brake dust and absolutely ear drum shattering brake squeal. Considering they cost 3-4 times what OEM pads at the local parts store cost, I think I wasted my money. The pads are chamfered, slotted and have shims already attached. Not much more I can do. If out of some miracle they quiet down I'll post a retraction. But, I'm not holding my breath."

"I installed my EBC Green Stuff brake pads in conjunction with a set of cryo slot brake rotors and Pirelli ZR rated tires. Everything was professionaly installed. I have not done any "aggressive" driving since installation, and have only done in town stop and start driving, with the exception of one hard test stop from 100 mph. They are noise free, and brake smoothly during "normal" driving. During the high speed test stop they braked smoothly and allowed me to stay right at the edge of my tire adhesion, without need for a lot more pedal pressure as they heated up."
