Since most pads won't even get that close to the edge, i wouldn't have thought twice about mounting it. Sure, i would check if it IS touching, but i really doubt it.
Front brakes and tyres you can replace if you feel they are not adequate. I replaced Tyre to protorq extreme and front pad to ebc fa209hh
Because I track my car, I have performance street pads and track pads. EBC yellow for street and RP-1 if I'm running an event + dot4
I used EBC Redstuff pads, absolutely love them.
If I was set on EBC pads, I’d get the green stuff as they give the best feel, don’t suffer from long run in times and squeal when cold and wet.
Go with ebc yellowstuff. If you like to drive a little hard. Changing the brakes on these cars is very easy by the way.
For road course, EBC yellows will be OK for beginning, but won’t last more then 3 or 4 days as you progress
Saved thousands and now have EBC breaks and rotors with red stuff , better performance way less money and installed from a highly recommended local shop!
What's the current pad thickness? I'm about to install EBC Yellowstuff pads and new rotors on my Allroad. I've had Redstuff pads on lots of previous cars and found it was a great compound for low dust and better braking performance over the factory semi-metallic pads. I mostly use Yellowstuff nowadays simply because I like the way they brake (sharp bite, no fade on the street). But they are super dusty.
I did the brakes and rotors myself for $300. Ebc brakes all day.
