Has anyone used these pads before and if so, what are the pro's and con's of them.

I plan to put them on standard Dba longlife rotors on my car.

thanks

All I have heard is great things about that combo, and I have ordered the pads and am getting the rotors and they will be fitted to my XR8 next week. I anticipate good things. They are not as hard on the rotor as Bendix Ultimates.

What are they worth?

Genebaby

Ooh, good question. I think it was $120 and $130 per pair, front and rear. I scrawled it down at work when ordering. Can't wait to get them fitted.

TwinPiston

I thought you didn't have your XR yet Genebaby

I get it tomorrow. Can never be too early with the mods. I want to experience better handling, braking and sound asap. No point waiting two years to get the exhaust done, or the brakes, do it NOW!!...lol....while I've been waiting I've been reading and researching what to do.

Lowering and exhaust was a given, the XF has that now, and if I was keeping her, I'd probably do the brakes on it too!

genebaby - thanks for your comments. Have you put them on yet? Its good to hear that they will be succesful. It looks as if I will be going that way in a few weeks. PLease let me know how your setupo turnsout.

Thanks

I have them on and they do work great. A bit squealy at the moment though.

There is probably a Formula pad that will fit your AUII rotors. You can check with a supplier to see which number to order.

I dont see why not Twinpiston but I would recommend contacting Ferodo and asking them.
