After having Saab pads eat through front rotors in about 25K, I have put more than 25K on the front Greens. They look almost new, as does the rotor. I have not noticed any loss in stopping power. Are the reds problematic when the car is cold? I think the cold friction is a little lower on the reds. I may have to go with OEM rear rotors as there seems to be no cheaper option, only the more expensive dimpled EBC rotors. I can’t see much functional benefit to a dimpled rear rotor. I may just go with more greenstuffs on the rear although I am tempted to try the Akebono ceramics. I put these on a non-Saab and the car stops very well.
