Default They're silent, but my impression was they weren't much better than stock.

I want more grab from my pads. The squeal I get from the Pagids only occurs when they're just heating up and to me is well worth the improved performance.

I've already learned to brake a little harder a few times once they start singing to get them past their noisy stage. (lol, sounds like raising kids)

your mileage may vary, my BBK makes changes a lot easier so I've tried a few.

Default Thanks...anytime I can get an iota of improved anything, I'll do it, assuming $ is ok

I just don't want to be grinding my teeth from the squeal.

Bruno S4 is running HPS pads on his car last I checked. Get in touch with him.

Not really. Ask someone else, I know little about these.
