"I take my Mustang on the racetrack 4-5 times a year for track days. This is the first time using the yellow stuff pads, and for the most part, I was satisfied. They were consistent and worked every time, but lacked the initial bite I was used to with other performance pads. I will be trying them out on my next day at the track with added cooling duct work."

Good pads for the money.

"1994 Golf GTI 2.0 stock brakes with new rotors ATE SL6 DOT 4 brake fluid 600 miles on pads. Initial fitment was average for after market pads. Pads were slightly oversize causing moderate initial dragging against the rotors. The antisqueal shim on one of the front pads separated right out of the box. With a good coat of caliper grease there is very minimal noise. Dust is moderate. Initial bite is good. They bite even better when hot, as expected. They have survived many 100-0 stops and been lit on fire at least once with no noticeable fade. I would purchase them again."

"First off, be warned that these pads can be a little dusty and noisy compared to OE pads, that's the trade you have to make. I've had the chance to fully break in the pads and test them out. They grab harder than the stock brakes on my Dodge Magnum AWD, so it took a little while to learn to make smooth stops again, but that's a good thing! However the best is the greater heat resistance. So far I have been unable to make them fade. I'm looking foward to testing these bad boys out on the race track this season!"

"The yellow stuff brake pad is by far the best quality aftermarket pad I have used on my vehicle. The break-in material is especially helpful. I just put them in and started driving around town. I didn't have to run through the old "break-in" routine like I used to have to with other brake pads."

"These are very good dual purpose street/track pads. Low noise and dust levels, yet able to handle the heat that track pads require. Good for those who just wants to put on one set of pads and not worry about changing it out every time you hit the track."

"Very good performance for mixed street and track driving. Much better pedal feel and initial bite-in compared to my original stock brake from Lotus."

"I installed EBC Yellow pads on my 04 350Z F/R. The car has stronger braking now than it ever had before. I have not yet tracked these pads, so I don't know how well they hold up to heat, but on the street they've been great. They aren't too grippy like some high performance pads, but stop faster than OEM. - Yellow painted finish is poor quality (chips off easily) - slight squeeking from the brakes, noticeable at lower speeds (not a big deal to me) - moderate brake dust (as expected) + very good performance"

So much better than the green stuff.

"Got these to replace my GreenStuff pads which were gone in less than a year. These are much better. Better, more consistent bite at all the times, especially when cold, and these should last longer. I only put about 100 miles on these so far, but they have a very bad siren like squeal and medium pressure, that's with shims. I hope if goes away once they are bedded in. I can't really comment on dust, but I think they are better than the Greens so far, which were horrible with dust."

"These brake pads are very good. No fading at the track. Dust generating is about he same as the OEM pads. The last time I checked, the OEM pads are actually more expensive than these. Will probably be using these as the replacement from now on."
