When I did your old 9-5 brakes at ~110+k, I put in the ebc greenstuff's and new rotors. Granted, I'm probably harder on the brakes, especially after putting in the aero suspension, but I was disappointed at how quickly I've got the same warping problem with the front rotors.
I've got 135K now, and plenty of rotor/pad life left, but the pulsing is brutal. I'm trying to decide between going with grooved/drilled rotors, or switching out of the ebc's. I've been really happy w/the reduced dust and good braking, though.
FWIW, the original brakes did a great job, but I was hoping to NOT have to replace rotors w/the ebc pads. In retrospect, 110k w/the factory setup was great EXCEPT for the dust!
