i have used the EBC greens, Repco MetalMasters, and Repco Deluxe. I am currently insalling the Rotex gold pads. Here's my take on them. The EBC's stop good and dust less than stock, but they seem to stay hot for a longer period of time causing rotor warping. i warped 2 sets of rotors with them. oh yeah they squeak too. The Metalmasters dust a little more than the EBC's, squeak alot, are rough on the rotors, and are bad when cold. Once heated up they are fine. The Repco deluxes are the cleanest pad i've ever seen. they squeak occasionally, are easy on the rotors, but they don't hold up in aggressive driving (ie fade quick). THey are a good choice if you drive like a normal person. I just got the rotex pads in last week. i heard they were pretty good. i'll let you know more after a few days.
