I have EBC HH's all around, and I love 'em.

Also, make sure your tires have plenty of tread, too.

Brakes can only do so much, but tires make a huge difference in stopping power, too

thanks guys, i was already looking at the ebc's so i just ordered some. and as far as tires i just put on new tomahawk tires about 150 miles ago and i couldn't be happier with their performance or price. the stopping power is fine my pads were just worn out. thanks for the help though

If you haven't done so in a year, I'd recommend that you flush your bake fluid too.
