Using these EBC Yellowstuff front brake pads is easy. Just install them according to your vehicle's brake system installation guide. When you start driving, you'll notice their great braking performance right away, no need to wait for them to warm up. During hard driving, they'll only get better. As for maintenance, regularly check your brakes for wear. If you see signs of excessive wear or reduced braking performance, it's time to replace the pads. Remember, these pads do produce more dust compared to some others. If you want to keep your wheels clean, you may need to clean them more often. Also, if you're mainly using your vehicle on the street and want a low - dust option, you might want to consider EBC Redstuff instead.
