That is not a typo.
I just used the special link to get the "old" prices and then applied a discount code of "presidentsday09" to the old prices and just got another 15% off the brakes.
I ordered another set of Red pads....front and rear shipped for $173 dollars.

I'd like to get two sets at that price, but I can't as they don't ship to Canada. Anyone able to purchase the sets for me if I wire them the funds and then mail them via USPS?

Well, I have about 14,000 miles on my ebc redstuff's now and they are at about 30%, and I drive pretty hard. So it would appear that they last a bit longer than the oem pads. I just ordered another set before my cross country trip to Arizona. For the record, the link is still good, but because of time constraints I called and ordered a set for full price which is now about $280 just so I could confirm that they actually had a set in stock. Not to worry though, I also ordered a set with the old link and I'll just return the extra set when it arrives and get a refund for the higher price.

At 30% on EBC reds....it would be nice to see the condition of the pads.
How do the rotor surfaces look? Grooves or valleys?

Nope, the rotors look like glass yet. My fronts were right on the edge of spec when I installed the pads, so it's time to throw my new rotors on anyways. Ideally I'd like to just leave them until they're worn out, but if we get into any hard runs I'll burn up the remainder of my pads pretty quick. On the bright side, my old rotors are going to make a great wall hangings in the garage. These things are a work of art.

Pat,
If you want to burn up a set before you put on new rotors....I have a set of fronts that are broke in with less than 1000 miles on them.
Save the new set for the new rotors.
Good info to know...the EBC Reds do not groove the rotors. IMHO there is no reason to run anything else. Now add this part that the pads dont groove the rotors.
No brainer.
I'm thinking maybe I'll just drive down with my current setup and throw my new rotors and pads in the trunk and assess the situation when I get down there. I can always throw the new rotors and pads on while the cars up in the air. I can't stand the thought of discarding 30% of my brake pads.

Yep, we can measure the rotors and pull the pads off to have a look. 15 minutes topps.
Sounds good, It'll be a good testimony for the EBC pads. By that time I'll be at about 18k miles on these pads. I don't think the oem Pagids were good for over 10k. I'm no percy milk toes either.

I use these. Centric Posi Quiets. The stop-techs are new.
I looked at the pads while the car was apart. They had very low wear and the rotors have little to no damage.

I threw on my new front rotors this afternoon, here are my EBC Redstuff's with 18,000 miles on them. Not bad, actually, there was no reason to replace the rears.

I think we can close the book on the EBC Red pads.
Perfect
And the braking performance is excellent.
No brainer. Glad I have 2 extra sets sitting here.
I've had them on the back and my only complaint is that I didn't start using them about 100K miles ago.
210K miles rolled
It's time for pads all around and front rotors. Anyone have a good source for the rotors?

the front rotors are about 280ea. dont worry about the checkout shipping cost..they will adjust it to true shipping when they go out.
You will have to search the site for the audi part numbers and plug them in because the above site does not list rs6. got to run
