Now I feel better after my hissy fit

.
It's not so much that I hate the pads is that I don't want to do business with the company. I understand that pads may have a fluke here and there but the service after the sale is just as important as the sale. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and never wrote or said one nasty thing to the company.
I just want to let others know what I went through so they too can make a better decision about their brake pads.
If the EBC pads failed at some other part besides the shims I don't feel that their warranty department would really care. And that too me means a lot.
Besides I paid a pretty penny for those EBC pads (60$) I expect them to be better than billy bobs auto parts.
