I have heard that these are great, but that they do tend to not grab as well as low temperatures? Did you notice this at all?

i was looking at getting these as well. i've been on the fence for the last month and things get pushed to the back burner.

what did that set up cost? is the grabbing at low temps true?

I liked the EBC pads on my ranger. They lasted forever and no brake dust!

So far so good. I only have around 200 miles on them so they aren't broken in yet.

they stop really well at low temps. i paid $260 for the rotors and the pads. its cheap i know. my sister works for kregen and she gets 25% off and pepboys does price match and then tag on 5% for buying the parts from them so i bought them at pepboys and my sister did the price match and i got a good deal. but without the discount its $320. for the front only
