Extended brake pedals

Anyone try one of these?

Motor Lessons suggests heel on the floorboard and toes or foot on the brake lever for a fast stop, but my ankle can't do that and I am usually lifting my foot to use the rear brake. I'm wondering if an inch lower is going to be enough.

I have the ez brake. Find it alot better than stock, with room under for my boot. Think i got it from eglide goodies. I feel it gives me a quicker reaction time, and looks good to boot....

EZ Brake is no more. They went out of business a few years ago. I have one and unless I'm barefoot, there's no way my boot is going between the floorboard and the brake pedal....That's the whole idea of having the pedal just a few inches above the board for easy application without lifting your foot up. BUT, since I have 1" extended boards and the HD profile boards (moved forward 1"), maybe that's why I cannot slide my foot under the brake pedal.

Well I'll be, I guess they started up business again....http://www.heelguard.com/ez_products.asp
