I had them installed in '04 or so. I did the proper bed-in procedure as per instructions. My braking behavior and driving conditions didn't change from when I had the OEM pads/rotors, so that shouldn't have been a problem. At around 5k, the rotors were warped (took it to the dealer to confirm). I made do on said rotors for another 5k miles as the pads were still good (heck, new), then just bit the bullet and had them removed and went back to stock. Before the EBC rotors warped, I didn't notice better braking performance-just less dust (due to the EBC pads).
IMO, the EBCs weren't worth the trouble.
