Got My Brakes!! Pads Are Tiny Tho, is that right?
Hey all, my EBC Slotted/Dimpled Rotors and Green Stuff Brake Pads and Goodridge s/s brake lines all came today. I'm installing the pads and rotors tomorrow, lines will wait till i have more time. Anyways, the rotors look great and are bigger than i'd thought, but the brake pads are tiny, this is there actual length:
[-----------------------------------------------] Doesnt that seem a little small? I dunno, just a thought. Lemme know wat you all think. Also, since in not doing the brake lines do you have any idea as to how long it will take to install the rotors and pads (front and back)? Thanx
