These pads are awesome! That is my review at subarureview.com...the pads are still holding up well, if I had one complaint it would be regarding the squeaking when the brakes are cold & when there is a lot of brake dust built up. But the decreased stopping distances are amazing and worht putting up with the noise. If you want a pad that is not quite as noisy I believe the Silver compound has less dust & squeal but aren't quite as grippy, still grippier than stock, but not as grippy as their blue compound. If you have questions give them a call and ask, they have several different compounds availible to fit what ever your needs may be.
