Nice one I’ve been looking into these myself recently.
From what I gather, the EBC Ultimax (Blackstuff) pads are more of a solid OEM-style replacement rather than anything performance-focused. That’s not a bad thing at all—they’re meant to be quiet, predictable, and easy on the discs, which suits everyday driving perfectly.
On a T6 with 308mm discs, they should feel a bit fresher than worn stock pads, with decent bite from cold and no drama. They’re not the kind of pad that’ll transform braking, but they’re reliable and do the job well.
Only thing I’ve noticed from others is they’re pretty “middle of the road”—not loads of extra bite, and dust is about what you’d expect from standard pads. So if you’re not pushing the van hard or towing heavy all the time, they’ll probably be spot on.
Would be good to hear how you get on with them once they’re bedded in
