If they was traveling in our area the convoy has outrun them long ago. And besides there are from all sides. Maybe have we really wild drivers? Freelander II 2,2 TD SE Stornoway Grey Sorry for my wry English. I began to study it recently. I'll be thankful for your corrections of my mistakes |

The information on the back of the rear brake pads is the following:

Appears to be the same pads. I am not sure why we are able to go greater distances here in Canada???

Brake pad wear is purely down to driving style.

I am looking around here (Canada) for a source for EBC brakes and rotors. From what I understand the pads are manufactured in the USA and the UK.

EBC is a company that manufactures brake components. I would prefer Brembo, but too much rubles.

I've fitted EBCs (Ultima I think, which is the basic). Seem good so far. There available from loads of places here in UK, but that doesn't help you much |

I just paid dealer cost to get my rear brake pads. I had it flown over to me. jacked er up, took the wheels off, replaced the rears. All good. it is odd that on the passenger side, the outer pad, was down to bare metal, while the inner pad still had 8mm on it. Apparently, something got stuck in between the pad and rotor and did a number on the pad. Rotor still A-OK. Even at cost, the pads are expensive. when I had the FL1 2004, I ran the R1 concepts X-drilled and slotted rotors, plus their economy brakes. They are definately good value. I see that they now have the X-drill and slotted rotors plus pads for the FL2. So I will be buying from them again. Armchair Commando |
