First impression: "My car still stops!"

Unfortunately, I don't know how good of a review I can write since they are part of a complete wheel/brake/tire upgrade that includes Ate PremiumOne Rotors and Super Blue brake fluid, Goodridge SS brake lines, Enkei RPF1, and Falken RT-615. For now I can tell you the brake dust under normal braking conditions isn't any worse than stock and they stop quietly.

Well I am glad to hear that they stop quietly. We will have to see if that remains. But as for performance, your review is going to be useless as you've done so much upgrading....no offense! I'm jealous in all reality! Enjoy it!!!!

None taken. The rotors, lines, and fluid won't decrease stopping distance. I have another 100 miles left in the brake-in period (pun intended), so I can keep the stock wheels and rubber on for review purposes after that.

Awesome, then it should be great to hear what you have to say. Try not to take the pedal feel into account!

I'm glad you mentioned that... there is no difference in pedal feel with the new lines and fluid on the street.

Not really, and there shouldn't be a difference under normal driving conditions. However, when I start hot-lapping the car on the track it should keep the same feel longer. I've read a few posts by people claiming that it changed the pedal feel, but I haven't experienced that... YMMV.

i guess amazing wouldnt count as a review would it?

well put it this way, install was straight forward, they are 100x better then stock, in terms of performance, brake dust, and wear. when i am worn through these, i will purchase again.

i hope this helps

Yep, I know you are a strong advocate for them Dave. But I am sure you can appreciate desiring more than 1 review. Believe me though, it is because of you that I am even thinking about them. I just really like to have done my research before I purchase b/c I have made mistakes in the past. So any more reviews would be appreciated.
