that was my concern but their little graph on their site has this key for the GFA's;
It's as good in every way as their street legal pads except for the lifetime department. Here's the street legal ones;
Some guys on another forum suggested it may be that EBC was just too lazy to get them approved for road use. I honestly can't understand the concept of too much braking power being dangerous.

The other idea I have is the "ZOMG IT'S ILLEGAL THEY STOP TOO FAST FOR PUBLIC USE YOU'LL DIEZORS!!!!!!" is all a marketing ploy. So powerful it's illegal kinda has a nice ring to it.
