for a little while (up front or all around, i cant remember which) at anyway,, they dusted as much as stock,, cracked like they were made from glass or something and squeeled like it was pure metal to metal contact. i personally,, did not like them.
i would go with performance friction or something else. i'm currently running with ebc greens although it took a while for them not to squeel too. i had to make thin rubber backing plates from an old innertube to make the squeel go away, but this worked. i have just heat spotted my 2nd set of rotors though. good think the brembo's at autozone come with a 2year unlimited warranty... they are boxed under the name Aimco, but brembo is stamped on the side of the rotor itself. unlimited warranty for 2 years,, nice,,, can you say "suckers" i told them up front that i race too,, they said it didnt matter.

Don't know how you would find no difference from stock pads, especially stopping from high speeds when they haven't been heated up yet, plus it wasn't clear to me, but if you only installed them on the rear you will never notice a difference since very little braking comes from the rear, MOST of the braking is on the front that's why the rear pads often last twice as long or more.
