    how is the pedal feel? are they better then the brembos? i'm not sure of the cylinder sizes for both cars, but i would assume that it brakes fairly more aggressive now.

    the pedal feel is actually no different imo. It's very even, light yet firm. The biggest difference is wet braking and hard stops. These pads don't squeak at all when they're wet and once you get into that range of "I need to stop now" in the pedal if it wasn't for my seatbelt locking I would have smashed my face into the steering wheel.

    You should run a stop distance test and compare to stock numbers

    I was going to but my tires are almost completely bald and are starting to split.. I won't be putting OE tires back on (because I hate them) so doing a comparison would be moot as there would be a new factor. They do stop faster, went from 50kph to 0 in about 30ft trying to not hit some jerk who dodged into traffic on a pedal bike.
