I would imagine that they would be a bit hard for street use

Default Not a lot of good luck here....>>
With EBC's compared to several other brands that seem to work well on our cars. Mintex Red Box pads are a good choice and inexpensive (ecstuning.com). Many also like Porterfields, but there have been some noise complaints. As Jason Said, EBC reds might be a bit hard for street use.
