EBC HH pads....fluid change?
Just got in a set of new brake pads for the 14. Still running the stock ones with 15,000 miles...was cleaning it up the other day and noticed the front ones were pretty thin, so I got the front and rears so I could do it all at once. Was thinking of changing out the fluid too, it's stock as well. Should I stay with the dot 4 or is the dot 5 a good choice? It is mainly just rode on the street, no real hard riding done.

It's not a DOT5 system, use DOT4 or 5.1 glycol based fluid, DOT5 is silicone based & not compatible with glycol based fluids. Changing/bleeding your system will improve the feel & response of your brakes. Your choice of EBC HH pads is the same one I prefer, they have great feel & enormous stopping power & I've never had any rotor problems using them.
