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 have negative experiences with all EBC brake pads, EXCEPT their sintered HH pads for race bikes. That is a totally different pad.
Never tried the yellow though I must admit.
Issues:
Low coefficient of friction.
Excessive "polished but grooved" wear.
Lots of dust.
I recommend Performance Friction ceramic pads available at Autozone for hotrods and stuff you care about.

Agree with previous poster about those brakes.
They don't stop worth a crap until they get heated. They might be good for a raod course or race track in a form of racing requireing frequent braking. Not for the street though.
For a car using OEM style Barke Pads I find it hard if not impossible to beat the Bendix Titanium Brakes. Next to that would be the best grade of Professioanl brakes from Waggoner.
If you have a GM car the Factory Delco Morane Brakes are pretty good too.
I hate the Autozome Carbon Metalics. They put out far too much black carbon dust to be liked on a street vehicle, for my tastes.
Raybestos I hate in any grade. The better grades are tough on Drums and Rotors.
The previous written is only my opinions, based on personal experiences.
