Axxis/PBR ultimates review

I installed these pads about 1 month ago along with some Brembo Blanks....the car is a 2k2 6spd....here are my impressions of the brakes after 1 month

-First two weeks...brakes wonderfully & is dead silent...I had to get used to the large amount of dust since I come from oem pads...

-After two weeks the pads started to screech...it was actually pretty minor so I decided to re-bed in the brakes and see how it went....

-Now after a month, they screech 75% of the time during daily braking.... it only happens after the brakes are warmed up...cuz when I pull out of the driveway and drive for first 5 minutes, the brakes are dead silent....i took the brakes apart a few times to see if anything was up...nothing wrong....I took off the clips and cleaned them with brake cleaner n applied the shims with anti-squeal compound...still get the screeching till this day...

In conclusion, I am not satisfied with these pads....they dust and squeel waay to much in my opinion...i don't mind the dust too much becuz I use to drive a car with Metal Masters...but these ultimates are soaked in dust after like 3 days of daily driving....I'm just sayin, I expect more stopping power for the amount of dust it gives off....

anybody else comment?
