EBC redstuff impossible to get?

So I’m at about 1500 miles on my g80 and looking to get rid of brake dust and improve my braking a bit at the same time.

From what I’ve read and seen across all sites, is it even possible to get EBC redstuff or does anyone out there have any stock?

EBC themselves are back ordered, so no reseller is going to have stock. Just buy iSweeps.

They don't. Rears only. Fronts are back ordered just like every other reseller.

You could also go with Carbotechs which is what I did last year after waiting on the never available EBC's. They are as well cheaper than the iSweeps or at least they were last year. Little less initial bite than stock but I've been more than happy with them and would buy again with no issues.

You may also want to consider the DFC5000 pads JDUNITNOW runs them on his car and likes them. They are priced way lower than the iSweep pads.

Are you running the Carbotech 1521s? They actually advertise upgraded braking performance not just less dust and noise. Wonder why more guys people don’t go with those at that price point?

Yes, that's what I am running now. I've had no issues with them. They dust way, way less than stock and aren't noisy at all at least for me. I talked directly with the owner and he even gave me a little discount on them last year. Lots of people love the iSweeps as well but it's going to give you similar results to the Cartotech's and be more expensive. That's why I went with Carbotech. No sense in spending extra. Just my 2 cents.

Also, Here is a review of the Carbotechs I did.

Guess you got lucky. I contacted them only a few weeks ago and the fronts were out of stock (and they still show out of stock on their website).
