Review on Enhance Performance with EBC Brakes DP22041 Greenstuff 2000 Series Sport Brake Pad by Jake Solorzano

Revainrating 5 out of 5

3 Year Update --- Much better than stock pads!

This is amazing (combined with EBC "USR" rotors). I've ridden them about 1000 miles and they're supposed to get better after another thousand miles or so, but they're a lot better than the stock brakes. I only noticed a slight difference in the first 500 miles or so when I "fitted" them (follow EBC's instructions). After those 500 miles or so it got noticeably better. They really "bite". For the first split second they are used as regular brakes; but then they really bite and grab hard (think they're warming up.). MUCH better than stock. I couldn't believe the difference. When you consider you're only paying $70-$120 more than stock (the cost of the brakes and rotors), it's well worth the extra dollars. There's more brake dust, but it washes out easily if you wash your car every few weeks. Can't comment on durability, but I hear it's good. Would buy them again in a heartbeat! Just noticed that these pads are in their 3rd year (2015 Hoda FIT - about 12,000 miles per year). So far it works as above. It may have reached its end of life, but it works like new! I will buy them again. The only downside is that there is always a lot of brake dust. However, the extra braking power is worth it.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Some difficulties
