I had EBC green pads on my car once. They did brake well but as I changed the discs one day I noticed the friction part of the brake pad had almost completely come off the carrier plate. It was the same on all 8 pads and there was still 3/4 of the pads left. It may have been a production issue but I never had that on any other brake pads from Brembo or Ferodo so since then I never bought any EBC again.
