I love them but they take a 3-4k to be broken in well. Make sure you change your brake fluid to ATE Super blue at the same time. Wait, I'll probably be doing this upgrade!

LOL! -Andy my sentiments on the 'brake' in time....takes a while for them to seat properly even following supplied directions....i have xdrilled rotors and carbon fiber pads from kvr which i guess is also brembo....they work very well during stop and go freeway driving but if i get on them too hard before letting the brakes warm up they dont stop as well....im still running stock rotors on back but want to upgrade to autospecialty and some premium pads overall i like the rotor and pad combo and it looks great but my tires are getting too worn to get the max outta them 95 contour se...dark blue...monsterflow air filter...remanuf atx...wiring harness recall or bust!!!96k miles...motorcraft awsf32pp plugs & red ford racing 9mm wires...kvr black plated cross-drilled rotors & carbon fiber pads...currently undergoing renovation...excuse our dust!!! are my dodgers for real????
