Kevlar brake pads.

#1 Post by mahony » Tue Nov 01, 2005 11:18 am

Has anyone here used the ebc kelvar pads (not greenstuff) on a sprint and if so any good?

Waste of money on standard discs and calipers is the general consensus because the rest of the system falls short, tiny solid discs with weak huge twin pot calipers, having said that on all of my cars I have had no issues at all, only now i`m entering in to the realms of motorsport am I thinking of upgrading. If green stuff are around the £30 mark how much are kevlar. You could probably get 4 or 5 standard pad changes for 1 set of green stuff so god knows what that ratio would be for kevlar.

They are just EBC`s standard compound. <br>

It`s going to cost you around £15 to change a set of pads using them by the time you pay the £7.50 delivery. I would be surprised if you local factors don`t stock equally good pads for less money.
