I'm staying away from ECS in general, I bought all four ECS drilled and slotted rotors with hawk HPS pads. I took my brakes apart only to find that the pads didn't fit even though their site states that they will, I confirmed with hawk that they don't fit my car, so I ordered new pads from FCP. I got the new pads, put everything together hoping it fixed my vibration, and found it was worse even in the first 5 miles(I assumed fresh brakes were magnifying whatever was causing my vibration). After taking it to my local shop he pointed out that my front right brake looked off. It had a spot maybe the size of a post-it note that still had "geomet" coating on it because it was dipped down so low and not getting touched by the pads. I found another spot like that on another rotor as well. I ended up buying some OEM rotors and my vibrations under braking vanished.
