I've been using them for a few years now and the performance is great. However, it doesn't do that well in overcoming some of the shortcomings. Advantages: - Increased friction compared to original pads. clear coat and paint to remove it. **This is a major disadvantage** This happens when the dust mixes with the water, and although I wash my car and wheels often (without leaving the dust on for long), it still happens. Instructions MUST be followed. No sag like some less aggressive pads they "warp" or create intermittent specks on your rotors causing vibration. Like many people, I like to "upgrade" my car. However, if given the opportunity I would do it again and go for an OEM style last.
