What made you choose this particular product?

Bought these because they had a higher heat tolerance than most

Is this your first time buying from this brand? Did you consider other brands?

Yes this is my first time buying from EBC. The pads are good if used for what they are built for. Not too great for street driving until they get up to temp.

Was it easy to install? Any installation tips that will help others?

Install is easy

Once you've had a chance to use the product, did it meet your expectations?

Haven't been back to a road course since I've put them on but I would imagine they're pretty good. Not great for autocross though
