Default Anyone have experience with EBC Yellows?
anyone have some experience with the EBC yellows? I talked to someone at summit point this weekend who had some very nice things to say about them. he claimed they were good track pads and also were not noisy at all. i'm kind of looking for a middle ground here, my xp8's have served me extremely well over the past few months, but they're seriously loud and i don't want to wake them up. i'm thjinking about replacing them after my last track event this year (if they don't wear down before then)

thanks

No they aren't, they're meant for track use. Red is light track/super street. I was just looking into some redstuff pads, some feedback on those would be great.

been running the yellows since april - highly recommended!
worked great on the track, and on the street. very little dust, rarely squeak.
just ordered a set for my c4 corvette, as soon as the rears arrive i'll be swapping out a set of hawk ht-10's - they stop great but are not rotor friendly when used on the street and the dust is corrosive. i expect the yellows to stop as good with no corrosive dust or rotor wear, but i will know for sure soon. put them on my dad's c5 z06, and this is what we saw. but my c4 is like 800# heavier...

I don't think you can go wrong with either, but I would go for the EBC RedStuff myself..
