Thumbs up got my new Stoptechs installed

Feel great and I think look pretty good too. Only issue is some slight squealing, which only occurs with gentle breaking. Not sure if I may have to change to a different pad (any opinions on quieter pads welcome!).
Overall, another happy Stoptech customer

Did you use anti-squeal spray when you installed you pads? I used a lot and I have no squeal at all.

Currently being installed... I waited just about 5 months for them. Good luck and be patient!

To the OP... They look great! [*EDIT* Picture removed - I apologize. Did not mean to thread-jack...]

Thanks to all for the kind comments.
Right now I have the Axxis pads that came with the kit. Anyone have any other suggestions for a "quieter" pad? Or should I try the "anti-squeal" spray first?

I like the matching silver vs. a glaring color. Nice!

I got the Axxis deluxe pads for my street use, and PF-01 for track use. That was my fronts. I Use Hawk DTC-60 for rear track, and something I can't recall right now for rear street.

Like you, I was sick of the squeeling from ther Axxis Ultimates that come with the kit.

I was just on the Stoptech site and saw that is one of their colors they offer

Props again, the silver caliper with your rims is soooo nice and clean!!
