I've seen many sets of EBC pads delaminate, braking surface comming away from the metal backing.
As for the EBC slogan "dust-less braking", what a load of rubbish! standard ford pads make less mess on your wheels and are renound for being dusty.
Mintex pads, 2 laps of Knockhill and were binned, enough said.
As for the comment about "FERRODO PADS HAVE NO FEEL & FADE" are you mental?
I have NEVER, and i mean NEVER had ANY fade with Ferrodo DS2500 pads in either brembo 4 pots or AP six pots.
Fair enough you have to put a bit of heat in them to get them to work at they're best but its not difficult, slight left foot brake for a couple of seconds is enough.
At the end of the day its your money mate but you buy EBC you'll be pissed off in a couple of months when they are fooked or not as good as you expect.
