They stop fine but really too early to tell as I didn't want to overheat them too much but no noise, judder, pull and the pedal is very good for brand new rotors. I'll report back in about a week after the wife breaks em in. The mystery pads ate up some big channels in the back side of the front rotors. I'm glad they are gone. I cleaned one set off with brake cleaner to try to identify them but no markings. So who knows?  I might be able to figure it out if you can post a picture of the pads.

Too late they are at the bottom of the trash can and the wife packed some disgusting stuff on top....besides she already thinks I'm crazy for posting pics of new parts...if I start posting dirty used parts she will want to send me to the boobey hatch....

They did go a long way though so I not complaining.
