Default EBC Green Stuff Pads

I installed EBC Green Stuff front brake pads today. I noticed that they do not have the tabs on them for the return springs to push on like the OEM pads. Has anyone who has installed these had any problems because of this difference?

i have the EBC brake pads on my car and ive had em for a little bit more than a year. They work fine and i have not had any problems with them at all. The only thing is they dont eliminate the brake dust llike they claim.

That tab you are referring to is a wear indicator. When your brake pad is almost gone, it starts to squeek with that indicator. Now you simply won't have it with the EBC pads. Just keep an eye out for your brake pads thats all as they wear out.

Thanks. I guess I should have checked the pictures in the service manual before I asked this question. Says plain as day "wear indicator tab".
