EBC are decent street pads but i have never heard a glowing recommendation from anyone but a street cruiser or someone who cares more about low dust than actual brake bite isn't much of an issue.
I had EBC Greens and Rotors, back when i had stock front brakes, for about 1 month before i pulled them off and tossed them in the garbage with 90+% left in them. after a few hard stops i would have had better luck sticking my foot out the door to try and stop the car. definately not a good "performance" brake pad compared to other options on the market. but they do work better than stock and do not dust a lot...
I had EBC reds in the back when i first converted to rear disc, they found the same trash-can in an even faster amount of time. they were noisy, soft, offered next to no bite at any temp.
