I actually saw and touched REAL rear EBC Green Stuff brake pads for the Cooper and Cooper S. We may be one of the first to get them in...FINALLY. Be on the look out, they should be at your favorite MINI suppliers shortly. I will do an install here in the next week or so for those that may be diving into MINI upgrades themselves or just want to educate themselves on how to put brake pads in. Check 'em out.

Damn, it took so long that now my factory pads are all bedded in and no longer produce much dust.

In general I get about 5 times more brake dust from my fronts than the rears. So if I upgrade to EBC in the backs I should get minimal dust I would think.

Thoughts on rotor with the new Greenies? Wonder at what point the new pads can't conform to the rotor surface? I would think atfer 6,450 miles that the rotor would be okay with the new pads.
