Love the change in how my car stops with these new pads. When I had to get rid of my old pads, I often worried that I wouldn't be able to stop in time. Braking was soft and slow to respond. Not with these bad mothers. When I press the pedal, I stop. Right now. I don't know how many meters my braking distance is shorter now. Anyway, I feel a lot safer driving at night in traffic jams or in the woods where a deer can jump out.
