No where near as good as the Brembos but a heap cheaper. For everday street driving I think they're fine. Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBAs were around $500 per rotor from memory? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not entirely sure how they go yet, but if these are sh*thouse will definitely hit ya up for a price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the chart on the website they don't have a higher temp rating to start working so should work well on the street for general and heavy use. They are not a track pad though. They are meant to be pretty low on dust too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yeah, not sure what was on there before but these have practically zero dust compared to the old ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the pedal feel good on these too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have a BA with standard brakes? What brand/type of rotor are you getting for that much with the EBC Reds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
