I recently tried the Power Stop after using Bosh or Bendix regularly and found that these ceramic pads leave less dust on the front wheels! I like that aspect. Follow the hacking procedure and you will have no problems. I found them VERY comfortable on a Subaru car. I've replaced brake pads on MANY cars and they were a lot harder to put on. This may be unique to SUBaru, but I thought it was worth the methionine. I still recommend this brand and hope they last (wear and tear).
