EBC Dimpled/Slotted Rotors & Misc Questions

Does anybody have the EBC dimpled and slotted rotors for front and rear? How do you like them and please post any photos of them.

Also, would it make any difference whatsoever if you used EBC green pads vs Hawk HPS pads with the EBC rotors? I'm guessing absolutely none at all, but just curious.

And, I hear that the EBC green and Hawk HPS are comparable. But, does that also apply in wet conditions?

Thanks!

I've not tried the Hawk pads, but the EBC Green pads (with EBC slotted rotors) are no better than stock. They still heat up just as fast, and don't work at all once they get hot.

They are good only for reducing the amount of brake dust.

Not sure if you can see the [dimpled] rotors on my car in my gallery, but I really like my Powerslot rotors with the Hawk HPS pads. I have not heard to many good things about the EBC Green pads. Just my two cents.
