It could be the new calipers...EBC don't really give any problems, Ive sold plenty and nobody has reported any issues.

Yes they are sold as a kit, I will post up some pictures this weekend.Never had any problems with my calipers with quite a few different types/makes of pads including current EBC, are they the correct pads for the caliper?

Doesn't mean someone hasn't put wrong pads in the box!

I tried fitting the new pads in my old siezed caliper and they fit perfect. I reckon it must be the caliper. I just want to know how far in they should fit as the pads are virtually flush on the edge of the disc unless I further dress them.

Pins and spring in 👍
That's perfect then 😃
On our 8.4 braked cars the pad material is close to the edge of the disc so must be right

It's normal for pads to be flush. some even have the hanging off a small amount. If they weren't to the edge it would wear a groove where it didn't meet the disc and cause noise.
