EBC Red Ceramic users?
Ive been deciding on pads for my new Wilwood rotors and I see EBC is under new ownership and their pads are back up to snuff on some reviews.
How do you guys like them? I want soemthing with low dust.
Or should I just get GM durstop Ceramics? EBCs are around $160 shipped.

My last pads were RedStuff and I thought they were perfect for the street. Relatively low dust, low rotor wear, and good friction.
As I could not find the RedStuff in stock anywhere, I opted for the Durastop ceramic pads. They are very low dust, very low rotor wear (they literally took weeks to bed properly), but low friction as well. It was very unnerving having to apply great pedal force for the first couple of weeks. They are better now after bedding in, but I wish I had the RedStuff.
I think the Durastops are more for 'waxers' that don't drive hard, and like to keep their wheels pretty.
