I had a set a while ago on my 95 Windstar, and they sure stopped a lot better than the stock Ford pads, but you could always feel and hear them grinding against the rotors, and they wore rather quickly. I tried turning the rotors and replacing them with new, but still the grinding. Did I just get a bad set? They don't make them for the rear discs on my 95 (or so Autozone says)...

Braking power & fade resistance are excellent. 2000 SVT #674 - Check it out! Whoever coined the phrase; "If it ain't broke; don't fix it" ~ Just doesn't get it...
