You should do a couple of hundred miles without braking hard so the pads and disks "get to know each other"...

DJ Wozza How are things now you have done a few miles mate ?

can't fault em...findings so far are:

i would say 30% sharper in day to day driving (not a MASSIVE improvement here)
BUT
for fast road use or on motorway they pads stick to the discs like (rap! brings the car to a halt so fast that theres a chance ull be flying out the windscreen if you aint belted...however to bring them up to their full potential the brake needs to be applied hard once and after that like i said they stick like anything...the only minus so far is that yes i can admit they are noisier than OEM ones...but not noisy enough to bother me...oh, and they look the dogs nuts! i think it was money well spent but yeah maybe next time ill go for the green pads as i dont do that much motorway driving
