| I just installed the 13" Stoptech four wheel kit and it came with the Axxis pads. With this configuration I found myself stopping BEFORE the stop lights! But they did squeal and left a ton of brake dust. I installed the HPS pads and broke them per the instructions. The squeal and dust is gone but so is the massive stopping power. I must admit they are smoother and more controlled then the Axxis but require more brake pressure to stop. I now find myself stopping at the line and having to use more pressure as I come to a stop...with the Axxis I was actually letting off the pedal as I approched the line. Today I was planning on switching back to Axxis to give them another try and see if I can deal with the noise and dust. I miss that initial massive GRAB the Axxis pads had. Keep in mind, I do not track the car.
