I am installing the first one this weekend on Dana's truck. They are a new item offered from EBC. They started in motorcycles and are now heavy into replacement rotors and pads for cars, trucks, SUV's. I have seen their setups on Corvettes, Vipers, and now they will be on a truck:nana2 Their pads are very low dust and work in higher temp ranges than stock. I think I can keep the whole kit under a grand installed. This is all four rotors and pads. Optional equipment would be SS brake lines and high temp brake fluid bleed. Their rotors are slotted and dimpled. They use dimples to add surface area and remove gases and heat. Another benefit to dimples is they do not stress or crack out like cross drilling is know for. Pictures coming soon!:tu:

Cool, I am going to have a chat with my EBC vendor. He does not stock them and it took 3-4 weeks to get Dana's set fresh made from England. I don't really want the overhead of a low sellling item so we'll have to see how interest is and if they are worth me stocking a few thousand worth of inventory for:tu:
