Default EBC brake pads

Has anyone tried EBC yellow brake pads on their Hotrod's? If so:

1. How do/did you like them?

2. Where did you buy them?

Here's a link:

I've never used EBC's pads on a Corvette, but I did have a set of their green pads on my old Talon. I liked them.

Here's their distributor page: http://www.ebcbrakes.com/usaautomotive.html

I have a set of EBC Greens on my 2000 hardtop and am very impressed with them. I also have Hawk HPS's on my '73 Corvette and Miata autocrosser. I would say the EBC's are at least as good as the Hawks (perhaps slightly better) and probably produce a bit less brake dust. They are also quieter than the Hawk's. I will use them again when I need pads.

I purchased mine from Auto Parts Warehouse. Here's a link to the C3 pads....

I also believe that Tire Rack carries them.

Good luck... GUSTO
