Has anyone tried the EBC greenstuff pads? I had them on another car a few years ago and they were totally squeel free, seems to be their claim to fame.

huh...I never had an issue with squeaky pads on the Stoptech's. I know the rear Axxis pads were squeaky...but never had an issue with fronts.

Maybe I'm just special or something. lol

EBC greens are teh suck.

they are OEM replacement pads, no more.

they will make noise on many different applications, and for the lack of braking force they offer, to me they are garbage.

Get some Hawk HPS or HP plus, or better yet, some Project Mu, deal with any noise that comes up, and enjoy having real brakes that actually work.
