I've been using them for about a month now. The first impression is that there is a clear difference in braking distance. I have a 14 Jeep jku rubicon with a 3.5" lifter, 35" and almost 800 pounds of recycled steel (bumpers, skids, winch, etc.) and it took me a long time to stop using stock rotors and brake pads. Huge improvement! It stops the jeep with ease even on the steepest descents (with some margin it still creeps slowly if I don't turn the transmission off). The pedal feels softer after installation, but stops smoothly and quickly. No brake dust! I know the pads will probably wear out a lot quicker, but I think the safety is worth it. I would definitely recommend this set and I don't think you can find anything quite as good in this price range. If you have any questions, I will change the rating.
